Spiaggia del Cervo
A small, bright and sheltered bay at the edge of Porto Cervo, where pale sand and turquoise waters create a peaceful corner overlooking the gulf.
Discover Spiaggia del Cervo
Spiaggia del Cervo lies along the coastline of Porto Cervo, in a slightly more secluded position compared to the central beaches, yet easily accessible both by land and by sea. It is a small inlet with a gentle, rounded shape, naturally protected from prevailing winds thanks to the configuration of the gulf.
The shoreline is composed of fine, pale sand, with predominantly sandy seabeds that slope gradually in the first few meters. The water is particularly clear and displays shades ranging from emerald green near the shore to bright turquoise further out, creating a striking contrast with the granite rocks that frame the bay. On calm days, the surface of the sea appears almost motionless, turning the cove into a natural pool of remarkable transparency.
Behind the beach, Mediterranean vegetation grows compact among shrubs, junipers, and rocky sections, helping preserve an intimate and orderly atmosphere. The discreet presence of the typical Porto Cervo villas, nestled among the greenery and never visually intrusive, reinforces the sense of balance between architecture and landscape.
Reaching Spiaggia del Cervo by dinghy allows you to fully appreciate its semicircular shape and natural shelter from the entrance of the bay. It is an ideal stop within an itinerary that includes the other beaches of Porto Cervo, alternating relaxing breaks in shallow, luminous waters with short panoramic cruises along the perimeter of the gulf.
