the wild sea of the north coast

📍 What Portobello di Gallura is like

Portobello di Gallura is a coastal village in the municipality of Aglientu, on Sardinia's north coast, between Santa Teresa di Gallura and Costa Paradiso. It's a small resort surrounded by nature that grew up around a stretch of coast of rare beauty: very fine white sand, centuries-old junipers, dunes and clear water swept by the mistral.

It's the place for anyone seeking the authentic, wild sea of Gallura, far from the glamour of the Costa Smeralda. Here the coast is still dominated by Mediterranean scrub and granite formations, and the beaches keep their natural charm intact. Our nearest homes are in Costa Paradiso and Isola Rossa.

In Portobello the wind is part of the landscape: it bends the junipers, ripples the water and smells of myrtle and sea salt. This is the Sardinia of people seeking silence and nature, not the queue at the beach bar.
