What July feels like

July is high summer: hot, dry and confident. The sea is warm from breakfast onwards, beach kiosks and boat charters run at full tilt, and life shifts to early mornings and long evenings, with a siesta-shaped hole in the afternoon. Book tables and sunbeds ahead in the hotspots, then use the reliable afternoon breeze: this is the month windsurfers and sailors circle. In Gallura that means granite coves and the Costa Smeralda, with La Maddalena's islands offshore and the Vermentino hills behind.
