 Poltu
Quatu Marina dell’Orso is located in the north-east
coast of Sardinia, on the “Costa Smeralda”. Easily
reachable from anywhere in the Mediterranean, the Marina dell’Orso
also represents an ideal point for those who want to visit
La Maddalena Archipelago.
Caprera can actually be seen from Poltu Quatu, whereas la
Maddalena, Santa Maria, Spargi, Budelli, Razzoli, Lavezzi,
Cavallo and Corsica are all close by.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to define the Sardinian
landscapes as the most stunning in the world and Poltu Quatu
(which means “hidden port” in Sardinian dialect)
isn’t an exception. Poltu Quatu looks like an old fishing
village built around the traditional circular little square,
with narrow alleys and stone buildings, situated on an inlet
called “Stintino dell’Orso”, an area characterized
by its red granite rocks which has been sculpted into fantastic
shapes by the “maestrale” wind. The rocks make
a frame to a very clear sea in which you can count the sand
grains even at 20 metres deep.
The sea inside the harbour is also clear and it is not unusual
to see fishes and octopuses swimming peacefully on the seabed.
Poltu Quatu was founded in 1987 with the intention of creating
a safe harbour to allow whose love the sea to navigate it
without renouncing the finer pleasures of life.
