Tharros is an ancient archaeological site situated on the west coast of Sardinia, Italy. It lies on the peninsula of Capo San Marco, within the modern-day municipality of Siniscola in the province of Oristano. Originally established by the Phoenicians around the 8th century BC, Tharros later became a significant Punic and Roman settlement.
Visitors can explore well-preserved ruins including Roman baths, a tophet (sacred Phoenician burial ground), defensive walls, towers, homes with mosaic floors, and remnants of a Roman forum and amphitheatre. The site also features a small on-site museum displaying artefacts unearthed during excavations.
The site features uneven terrain, stone pathways, and ancient steps, so full accessibility may be limited. However, some areas, including parts of the coastal walk and the museum, are accessible with assistance. Visitors with mobility concerns are advised to wear sturdy footwear and contact site management in advance for guidance.
Yes, Tharros is family-friendly and offers an engaging open-air history lesson. Children often enjoy exploring the ruins and learning about ancient civilisations. Educational panels and occasional interactive exhibits help bring the site’s past to life. Remember to bring sun protection, as shade is limited.
