Golfo Di Marinella

Golfo Di Marinella is a coastal locality within the municipality of Olbia, in Sardinia, lying just next to the renowned Costa Smeralda. This stretch of north-eastern Sardinia is known for its jagged shoreline, alternating between rocky coves and small pale-sand beaches lapped by clear turquoise waters. Mediterranean scrubland, fragrant with maquis, and umbrella pines cover the granite terrain that slopes down towards the sea. The village of Porto Rotondo, recognised for its marina and refined atmosphere, lies just a few kilometres away, as does the town of Olbia, home to an international airport that makes the area easily accessible. The surrounding coastline offers plenty of opportunities for coastal walks, diving and boat trips out to the nearby La Maddalena archipelago. The Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers, draws most visitors between June and September. Local cuisine centres on fresh seafood alongside traditional Sardinian specialities such as pecorino cheese, bottarga and rustic breads. Golfo Di Marinella therefore serves as a convenient base for exploring this sought-after part of the Sardinian coast.
