San Pantaleo is known for its low-key rustic charm, with narrow streets and stone buildings that give it a traditional and authentic feel.

Take a guided tour to see its marina packed with millionaire yachts and maybe mingle with the jet set. Soak up all the glamour from one of the pavement-side cafes, or in the designer shops and high-end boutiques.The last stop is Baia Sardinia, a glorious beach where you can enjoy some free time to relax, swim, or take a break in a beach bar.
