San Pantaleo (SS), the magical place in the heart of the Costa Smeralda (Olbia)A small jewel in the immediate hinterland of the Costa Smeralda: this is San Pantaleo, the characteristic place that lies high on the granite rock formations of the Gallura.
The town was built at the beginning of the 19th century around a small country church and is now part of Olbia. A place that is proud of its traditions and its uniqueness.
A place beyond time that welcomes visitors with the warm hospitality of its inhabitants and with a simplicity that is now rarely found: between the skilfully restored small houses you can see the artisans' shops and the artists' studios. In the central square with its white flowering oleander bushes you can hear the voices of children, drowned out by the impressive Thursday market. The majestic granite frame offers a wonderful tranquility that has little to do with the frenetic atmosphere of the Costa Smeralda.
