People of Costa Smeralda

The Costa Smeralda, meaning “Emerald Coast" in Italian, is a renowned stretch of coastline located on the northeastern shore of the island of Sardinia, Italy. Famous for its stunning beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and rugged granite cliffs, the Costa Smeralda has long been a favored destination for luxury travelers and jet-setters from around the world.

Developed in the 1960s by a consortium of investors, including the Aga Khan, the Costa Smeralda was transformed from a rugged and unspoiled landscape into an exclusive playground for the rich and famous. Today, it is dotted with luxurious resorts, upscale villas, designer boutiques, and world-class golf courses, attracting discerning travelers seeking a glamorous and sophisticated escape.

In addition to its natural beauty and opulent amenities, the Costa Smeralda offers a rich cultural heritage, with traditional villages, ancient archaeological sites, and vibrant local markets waiting to be explored. Whether indulging in water sports along the coast, savoring exquisite cuisine at Michelin-starred restaurants, or simply soaking up the Mediterranean sun on a pristine beach, the Costa Smeralda offers a luxurious and unforgettable experience for visitors seeking the epitome of Italian coastal living.
