Deer’s Port, Esmeralda CoastPorto Cervo is Costa Smeralda’s center of luxury tourism, VIPs, trendy pubs, restaurants and yachts, and the place for international jetsetters to enjoy the highlife.
The famous Piazzetta and the small streets that wind through the center of the town are full of the most prestigious boutiques and jewellers. The typically Gallura architecture conceals the finest hotels and exclusive villas within seemingly simple buil-dings.
Set amidst the most beautiful and rare natural surroundings, looking out towards the dancing colours of the sea, Porto Cer-vo offers an experience that is hard to put into words and im-possible to forget. It is a place where you can lose yourself in the wonders of nature.
Porto Cervo (Costa Smeralda)
With the most prestigious fashion houses, the most exclusive jewelers and the finest craftsmanship, The Walk of Porto Cervo is a shopping paradise where the most well renowned and lu-xurious International Brands are to be found..
From Bulgari and Dolce & Gabbana, Versace to Valentino, Prada, Trussardi, and Rossetti to Cartier, a long list of notable Brands fight for the attention of crowned heads of state, busi-ness leaders and sheikhs, and other jetsetters who have huge amounts of credit and love to spend on this antique cotto tiled street.
The Walk continues underneath “La Piazza Rossa”, the Red Square, and we call this the “Sottopiazza”, where you will find yet more interesting boutiques and ateliers. Not too far from there is a promenade that runs along the Porto Cervo Marina, which is well known as a commercial center for gourmets.

Costa Smeralda GolfLodged perfectly within the wonderful panorama of the Bay between Cala di Volpe and Golfo del Pevero, lie the gently rolling hills of the Pevero Golf Club Costa Smeralda, one of the best Golf Courses in the world.
It was conceived by one of the great masters of golf architecture, Robert Trent Jones, and has qualified for a listing among the PGA (Professional Golfer’s As-sociation) Europe’s “Elite Selection”.
Its layout is exceptional, among the rocks, natural lakes and the surrounding green landscape. Open all year round, the course hosts golfing seminars and instructional courses for all comers, from beginners to professionals, led by some of the best PGA professionals in Europe.
Turf and surf: discovering the tastes of GalluraWhile the Costa Smeralda was developed in the 1960’s, it is part of a historical region of Gallura in Northern Sardinia, an area that is brimming with history and tradition. A vacation in Gallura means getting to know the Sardinian culinary traditions, from the simplicity of the locally produced “stazzi”, the traditional sta-ple of the countryside communities, to the finesse of the speciality fish dishes served along the coast.
Exquisite GalluraThe region offers you an exquisite culinary experience along with the marvels of Vermentino, one of Gallura’s most noble and notable wines.
One of the more noteworthy dishes of Gallura tradition is the fragrant “suppa cuàta”, a tasty oven-baked dish that is made of bread, cheese, and mutton broth. Then there is the “zimino”, a fish soup that exemplifies superb marine cuisine, as well other specialities such as mussels, sea urchin roe, and of course, the local lobster - the queen of the seabed and the dinner table.
Gallura is also the home of famous wines and at the Cellars of Vigne Surrau in Arzachena; you can join a tasting tour of the estate.
In nearby Arzachena you will find the cellars of Cantina Capichera, a flag-bea-rer for Sardinian Vermentino throughout the whole world. In Berchidda on the other hand, another center of excellence in wine production, you can pay a visit to the Museo del Vino, a wine museum with a workshop.
