North Sardinia: 5 star yacht mooring and facilities

An elegant private marina between the Costa Smeralda and the La Maddalena Archipelago

This is the location for the exclusive Cala Capra private marina, an exceptional setting, facing the La Maddalena Archipelago and the Costa Smeralda. An elegant tourist port in Palau, a mooring point and buoy area for yachts, charters and boats in Northern Sardinia, offering a wide range of exclusive services and facilities such as a Thalasso Centre & SPA, restaurants, fitness, catering, golf and 5-star hotels.

The Cala Capra private marina

From Porto Cervo to the La Maddalena Archipelago, and on up to southern Corsica, sailing on this exclusive and breathtaking stretch of coast means you can discover the most “Caribbean” beaches in Italy … A day of this kind deserves a 5 star pit stop right in the middle of the 2 destinations, at the enchanting bay at Capo d’Orso. In the Marina di Cala Capra, yachts and charters up to 60 m can moor at the quay, and boats up to 100 mts out in the buoy area, close to the Mistral, Ponente and Libeccio winds. Once ashore, why not let yourself be pampered by the many 5-star services provided by the Capo d’Orso Thalasso & SPA Hotel?

You can choose between the 9-hole Pitch & Putt golf course, the “L’Incantu” Thalasso & SPA Centre, or an exquisite lunch at Il Paguro Restaurant, on a scenic terrace surrounded by olive trees looking out over the sea.

But that’s not all, because if you prefer to go back on board you can opt for the SPA service on board, with masseuses or beautician directly on the yacht, or there is the galley with delivery directly on board; show cooking with Chef on board; or even catering for any occasion, prepared by the renowned Il Paguro Restaurant which you can enjoy in comfort on your own boat.

The ‘Il Paguro’ restaurant

You know, the sea makes you hungry, and if you want a food and wine experience of the highest level an excellent lunch at Il Paguro Restaurant is a must.

The restaurant features a large terrace directly on the sea, overlooking the Cala Capra beach and the private marina. It offers authentic Mediterranean cuisine with seafood specialities and the catch of the day, accompanied by top-class wines expertly recommended by the sommelier. Gluten-free cuisine is also available upon reservation.

Opting for the à la carte restaurant means you can take advantage of free mooring for yachts up to 60 meters for guests who come here for lunch. This makes it ideal for a short break while sailing between the islands of the Archipelago.

The Hotel Capo d’Orso, 5 stars by the sea

Should you wish to be captivated by the beauty and charm of this corner of Northern Sardinia with its beaches, the Roccia dell’Orso (Bear Rock) natural monument, archaeological sites, military forts, the delightful small town of Palau, or simply want to stop for a few days of total relaxation, why not extend the “break” with a stay in this elegant 5-star boutique hotel? The location is exceptional, as are the services and facilities.

Yet it is the unique quality of nature that reigns supreme here. A splendid and luxuriant natural park, a place where time seems to have stopped, surrounded by the intoxicating scents of Mediterranean plants such as helichrysum, Rosemary and juniper, and a clear and crystalline sea with constantly changing colours.

Your stay here will be a fairytale interlude during your sailing trip around Sardinia.
