In the northern part of Gallura, in the territory of Arzachena, there is a small fjord featuring pink granitic rocks, shaped by the wind, overlooking one of the most beautiful landscapes in Sardinia: the Maddalena Archipelago. Here lies Poltu Quatu, a small village dedicated to the seafaring life of the past and located in a strategic position in a natural inlet nestled in the typically Mediterranean landscape, an exclusive place with a crystal clear sea and Costa Smeralda social life. It emerged in 1987, as a landing place for small and medium-sized boats. Over time, the village has become a destination for the jet-set and is now surrounded by hotels of various categories, famous restaurants, designer shops and diving clubs.

Poltu Quatu is surrounded by granitic rocks emerging from the scrub and is characterised by small houses perched on the hills overlooking the sea. The houses revolve around a little central square and a small harbour, Marina dell'Orso, which has 320 moorings that are also occupied by large yachts, and overlooks the island of Caprera and other islands of the archipelago, which you can reach and explore by boat from the harbour.
By land, just a stone’s throw from the village, you can reach the magnificent Costa Smeralda beaches, including Capriccioli, the coves of Pitrizza e di Volpe and Liscia di Vacca and those of Palau, among which Porto Faro, Porto Rafael and Cala Trana stand out.
