Day 03 Palau – Costa Smeralda – Palau

In the morning, you will go on an excursion through the Emerald Coast. The city of Arzachena makes part of this extremely appreciated and famous area: Rich nature, “Mediterranean macchia”, rocks built by the same nature, wonderful beaches in clear sea water, promontories and small islands. This incredible heritage was created in 1962 due to the free initiative of the prince Aga Khan V, who controlled an international financial organisation.

Its coast, its local manufacturing, its receptive structures make it one of the most required places of the island for the summer holidays. Then, we head to Santa Teresa. This place is the symbol of a fusion between nature and modern, tourism and wild area, representing a cult itinerary for thousand of tourists. Its promontory seems a huge cathedral, imposing and strict, and rises in front of the famous white Sardinian rocks, creating several strange shapes in one of the most evocative seaside places of the world, the so-called Strait of Bonifacio.
