Marina dell'Orso, Poltu Quatu

Marina dell'Orso sits dramatically tucked between granite boulders at the far end of Poltu Quatu's bay — one of the more striking spots you'll drop anchor in Sardinia. The marina is well-protected and runs smoothly, with fuel prices that undercut most nearby ports and staff that actually seem happy to help. From the docks you're steps from waterfront shops, and the rugged Costa Smeralda coastline is right on your doorstep.
