Porto Rotondo is truly the perfect destination for those loving the sea. During the day it is surrounded by the crystal clear waters and the coast, with the fascinating colours of the Gallura.

The circular natural creek in the north east of Sardinia was the ideal site chosen to build Porto Rotondo, already dubbed by locals “Poltu Ridundu”. A geographical space that became an equipped marina around which to develop a marine village.

It was Venetian Nicolo Conti and Luigi Dona dalle Rose who committed themselves in 1964 to create the port and the village. Almost everything was built spontaneously, following the inspiration of the moment.

The idea of the two brothers was that Porto Rotondo would become a ” milieu ” of artists and intellectuals, and the first to respond to the invitation were the sculptors Andrea Cascella and Giancarlo Sangregorio. The first one created the meeting point of all holiday encounters: Piazzetta San Marco. The second one created the little square of the fishermen’s dock “Old Dock”.

Beautiful beaches surround its marina that provides mooring for more than 650 vessels of all sizes. The territory is divided into three “focal points”: Punta Nuraghe, Punta Volpe and Punta Lada.
