In the 1960 the Arab Prince Karim Age Khan arrived on the Gallura Coast and fell in love with it, so much so that he renamed it Costa Smeralda, Emerald Coast, from the incredible sea water color. Today, it is Sardinia’s most glamorous vacation spot, where relevant figures in the international jet set, sport, finance, politics and industry spend their holidays.
The panorama is as unique as it can be, with rocky mountains overlooking white beaches and the most stunning emerald-green sea you will ever see. A gracious architecture and a simple and refined style of low houses, villas, golf courses and marinas, surrounded by juniper bushes and Mediterranean scrub, create a perfect and harmonical scenery.
