Asinara is the large (52 km2) virtually uninhabited island at the NW tip of Sardinia. The island and the surrounding waters are declared a nature reserve: Parco Nazionale dell'Asinara (Asinara National Park).
It was also known as "Isola del Diavolo" ("Devil's Island"), since it was used as a quarantine location, as a prison camp during the First World War, and as one of the most important Italian high security prisons during the terrorist period of the 1970s and during the struggle against organized crime, until the establishment of a National Park in 1997.
