Gulf of Oristano

The Gulf of Oristano is a wide bay on the west coast of Sardinia, Italy, bordered by lagoons and wetlands. The ancient city of Tharros stood on the Sinis peninsula at its northern end, and the town of Oristano lies just inland. The surrounding plain was the heartland of the medieval Judicate of Arborea.
