Why you’ll love this…
  • The tour begins in the charming village of San Pantaleo, brimming with traditional stone buildings
  • You'll browse through local artisan shops offering distinctive handicrafts and Sardinian produce
  • A guided tour introduces you to the luxurious side of Porto Cervo and its impressive marina

What to expect

San Pantaleo is known for its low-key rustic charm, with narrow streets and stone buildings that give it a traditional and authentic feel. The village square is the heart of San Pantaleo, and it is here that visitors can browse the small shops run by local artisans, selling traditional and unique handicrafts and Sardinian produce.

In total contrast, Costa Smeralda is a sleek destination with Porto Cervo at its luxurious heart. Take a guided tour to see its marina packed with millionaire yachts and maybe mingle with the jet set. Soak up all the glamour from one of the pavement-side cafes, or in the designer shops and high-end boutiques.

The last stop is Baia Sardinia, a glorious beach where you can enjoy some free time to relax, swim, or take a break in a beach bar. The fine sand invites you to linger, while the beach is bookended by rocky outcrops perfect for snorkelling or rock-pooling. We'll take a scenic route back to base with views over the coast and countryside.

    I really enjoyed the tour and, it was assisted by our guide who was very knowledgeable about the locations we visited and history of the area. I would consider the tour again when I next visit Sardinia.

    I enjoyed the guide information but the destinations were not exciting. Would have preferred a more traditional view of Sardinia rather than how the other half live.

Northeast Sardinia beaches Tour with free time and ice-cream

Explore the splendid coast of northeast Sardinia on a trip filled with sun, sand, and sea. We've got two pretty special beaches a quaint seaside village, plus – a sweet treat lined up just for you. Daniele, one of our local expert guides, says, “Gelato isn't just ice cream - it's Italy in a spoonful. Made with fresh, natural ingredients and churned to silky perfection, one scoop and you'll understand why Italians take their gelato so seriously."First up, we're hitting Cala Ginepro, a beach that looks like it's straight out of a postcard. Imagine a curved stretch of light golden sand with pink rocky outcrops and a dazzling turquoise sea. It's the perfect spot for lounging, with calm, shallow waters that are just begging for a splash. Next, we'll call at the former fishing village of Santa Lucia. Wander through its charming streets where local fishermen are just going about their day, and you'll see how the sea is woven into everyday life.After free time to enjoy this photogenic spot, it's off to La Caletta, a long, wide beach that's all about family fun. Surrounded by a pine forest, it's got everything you need, from sailing and surfing to diving and boat trips, plus all the amenities you could ask for. You'll wrap things up at a local 'gelateria' where home-made ice cream in a rainbow of flavours is on the agenda. Whatever flavour you decide on, your taste buds are in for a treat.
