Carloforte (Sardinia)

Sea stacks and fishing boats hail all who arrive on San Pietro’s saintly shores, a southern Sardinian Island with a distinctly Ligurian flavour. Sea breezes drift through the cobbled streets of Carloforte, where generations-old restaurants tease flavours from smart sommeliers that uncork Sardinian sunshine and serve world-renowned Bluefin Tuna, which is coveted by acclaimed sushi chefs in Tokyo. Centuries-old walls and hilltop castles tell tales of pirates and plunder, while pretty piazzas and bustling markets set the stage for unhurried moments. Nature sculpts otherworldly forms along a rugged coast, where seabirds swoop around gorse-covered clifftops and scenic sailings reveal hidden coves and honeycomb caverns. Tap into the island’s artistic soul among pink-hued salt pans and powder-soft sands, a blank canvas for your island masterpiece.
