Golfo Aranci, situated on the Northeast coast
of Sardinia, is not only an important port with daily connections
with main land Italy, but also a great holiday destination
that offers beautiful beaches and tourist facilities at
hand. Besides the fantastic beaches in the gulf itself,
there are many enchanting stretches of fine white sand in
the surrounding area such as Cala Moresca, Cala Greca, Cala
Sabina and White Beach, which can be reached by driving
a few kilometres along the panoramic road to Olbia. On that
same road you will also find the spectacular Cala Sassari,
Cala Banana, Sos Aranzos and Terrata. They are all set within
outstanding little bays with crystalline water. The town
has a large selection of restaurants and bars, nice shops
and luxury hotels with swimming pool, tennis courts and
all modern comforts. There is a variety of water sports
available, including diving with qualified instructors.
The fish festival, which takes place on the 15th of August
in occasion of the town celebrations, is an opportunity
to take part in the tradition of Golfo Aranci and to eat
plenty of delicious fresh fish.
For those who wish to take a peak at the nightlife of the
rich and famous, the exclusive clubs of Porto Cervo and
