Octopussy

Octopussy is a restaurant and bar in the La Maddalena area of Gallura, sitting just steps from the sea in one of Sardinia's most strikingly beautiful archipelagos. The name alone sets the tone — playful, laid-back, unapologetically coastal — and the setting backs it up with turquoise water practically at your feet. You're in the right spot to dig into fresh local seafood, including the octopus dishes this part of Sardinia does particularly well, while soaking in that unhurried island rhythm that makes Gallura so hard to leave.
