Bosa is a town and comune in the province of Oristano, part of the Sardinia region of Italy. Bosa is situated about two-thirds of the way up the west coast of Sardinia, on a small hill, about 3 kilometres inland on the north bank of the Temo River. It is the only town on the island of Sardinia built on the banks of a river. The town has maintained a population of around 8,000 people for a significant amount of time, but has an urban character that has differentiated it from other locations in Sardinia. It is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia. Agriculture and fishing play an important part in the city economy, thanks to the river valley near the coast surrounded by hills and highland plateaus.

Located in the north-western part of Sardinia, Bosa is a picturesque town that boasts a rich history and culture. As soon as YOU arrive in Bosa, YOU will be captivated by the colorful houses that line the river Temo, the only navigable river in Sardinia. The town is home to several historic landmarks such as the Castle of Serravalle, which stands on a hill overlooking the town, and the Cathedral of Bosa, a 12th-century Romanesque church that is a must-visit for history buffs.

Bosa is also known for its beautiful beaches, which are some of the best in Sardinia. The stunning coastline is dotted with small coves and bays, and the crystal-clear waters are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and diving. Some of the most popular beaches in Bosa include Bosa Marina, Porto Alabe, and Cala Managu.
