IGY Marinas has been appointed by Smeralda Holding to support the fully owned Safebay managing Cala di Volpe Moorings on Sardinia’s Costa Smeralda.
The appointment follows a successful inaugural year from IGY Marinas and underscores what it says is its company’s commitment to exceptional service, operational excellence, and sustainable marine practices in one of the Mediterranean’s most iconic yachting destinations.
The moorings are located seven nautical miles south of Marina di Porto Cervo — an IGY Marinas destination — and feature 18 secure buoys designed to accommodate yachts up to 150 meters.
Guest facilities
The eco-conscious mooring system was envisioned by Smeralda Holding, the Italian wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Qatar Investment Authority and owner, among other things, of prestigious hotels and assets in Costa Smeralda, including Cala di Volpe Hotel and Marina di Porto Cervo.
Guest facilities include services such as shuttle transfers ashore, water taxis, waste collection, provisioning, and catering.
With the global superyacht fleet continuing to grow and berth availability tightening across the Mediterranean, IGY says its continued stewardship of Cala di Volpe Mooring is welcome news for IGY Trident members, who benefit from guaranteed mooring access during even the busiest periods of the season.
Smeralda Holding is the indirect concession holder.
