Located within the stunning cutout bays of Costa Smeralda in Sardinia lies the iconic resort town of Porto Cervo. An exclusive Italian resort nestled on the island’s northern coast, Porto Cervo is a longtime favored playground for the rich and famous, known for its state-of-the-art marina and the luxurious Yacht Club Costa Smeralda. Home to a combination of natural beauty and luxury amenities, the town, developed by Prince Karim Aga Khan in the 1960s, includes a picturesque harbor surrounded by high-end boutiques, fine-dining restaurants, and lively nightlife across several bars. The neighboring beaches of Capriccioli, Celvia, and Principe offer crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing, while the nearby Stella Maris church provides breathtaking views and architectural charm. 

The perfect stop during a wider charter around the charming island of Sardinia, a stroll along the Promenade du Port reveals designer boutiques, while golf enthusiasts can try to perfect their swing at the Pevero Golf Club.
