San Pantaleo Things to Do

Ideally positioned in a picturesque mountainous setting, the village boasts excellent terrain for walking and hiking, with visitors able to follow one of the paths and trails on foot and take in the simple beauty and rural charm of the area. San Pantaleo is the ideal destination for a walking holiday. 

 

Cover plenty of ground on a leisurely cycle or challenging mountain bike ride and discover the charm of the countryside around San Pantaleo, or head north to the dramatic and rugged Gallura region. Bicycle rental is available in town.

 

As well as walking and biking, horse riding and golf are available for those seeking an activity holiday, with hotels and apartments in the village having swimming pools and facilities for table-tennis.  

 

Venture away from the village's rustic centre and head to the Costa Smeralda, home to a number of white sandy beaches, such as Porto Rotondo and Portisco, as well as a host of delightful hidden coves to discover.    

 

The beaches offer sailing, windsurfing and scuba-diving, with boat rental readily available. Spend a day in nearby Porto Cervo to watch a yachting regatta from the marina.  

 

The resort hosts a weekly market in the square, a bustling event ideal for soaking up the Sardinian culture and sampling some regional produce, and browsing the locally-made arts and crafts. San Pantaleo celebrates its village festival takes in honour of the town's patron saint in late July, and features lively shows, music and traditional dancing.

 

Tour the archaeological site of the Giant's Grave, visit the glamorous Porto Cervo at night for a change of scene, and people-watch in the glitzy harbour.
