Sardinia Luxury Season — Costa Smeralda
The Mediterranean's most exclusive summer destination at peak season.
August on the Costa Smeralda is Italian luxury at its most unapologetic. The Aga Khan's original vision — a pristine stretch of Sardinian coastline developed for the world's most discerning travelers — reaches its zenith in high summer. Superyachts, private beach clubs, and cliffside dining define the experience.
Why it matters
The month when Mediterranean luxury concentrates in one extraordinary corner of Sardinia — where the world's most beautiful coastline meets its most exclusive hospitality.
