            This article explains in great detail what it is like to kayak on the crystal clear waters of Sardinia, Italy.  This article compares the experience of the trip to the author’s previous experiences in North America.  As a whole it promotes new adventures and highly suggests Sardinia as a must to visit. 
            The article explains reasons to visit Sardinia and why it is such a great place for kayaking.  Sardinia is very different from North America because of the ruins of castles that line the shores and a stunning view of ancient civilization. This article also states the necessary equipment used for this kayaking trip such as scuba gear to enjoy the water as well as the land.  The trip is a nine day kayak tour to fully experience the unique culture, food and history of Sardinia.  This Italian island is a UNESCO world Heritage site therefore the land is preserved and fairly unscathed.
              I really enjoyed this article for its unique way of captivating the reader’s attention through description.  This article just adds to my already immense interest in traveling.  It has always been my goal to travel to remote and untouched places in the world to explore.  Now that I have read this article I can add Sardinia to the list.  Overall this article was very informative and defiantly sparked my interest in visiting this island in the future.
