Porto Cervo offers Sardinia's largest and highest-quality selection of pre-owned motor yachts. The marina's prestige attracts owners who invest heavily in maintenance, upgrades, and presentation — meaning the average condition of boats for sale here is significantly higher than at other marinas.
Buying at Porto Cervo also means you are buying into the Costa Smeralda cruising ground. From your berth, you are within a day's cruise of the Maddalena Archipelago, Corsica's Bonifacio, and dozens of pristine anchorages along the north-east coast. It is the single best base for cruising in the western Mediterranean.
The flip side is that Porto Cervo is a premium market. Boats here are typically priced 10–20% above equivalent vessels at less prestigious marinas. However, you are getting better-maintained boats, better berths, and access to a superior cruising area. For many buyers, the premium is justified.
Motor yachts 15–25m: The core of the Porto Cervo market. Azimut, Ferretti, Sunseeker, Princess, Cranchi, and Absolute are all well represented. Expect to find boats in the €300,000–€2,000,000 range with excellent specification and condition.
Motor yachts 25–40m: The prestige segment. Sunseeker, Princess, Sanlorenzo, Azimut Grande, and Ferretti Custom Line. Prices range from €2,000,000 to €8,000,000+. Many come with transferable berths, which adds significant value.
Superyachts 40m+: Porto Cervo is one of few Sardinian marinas with berths for vessels above 40 metres. The superyacht market operates through private networks — contact us for current availability.
Sailing yachts: A smaller but active market, concentrated around the YCCS racing calendar. Swan, Nautor's Swan, Wally, and performance cruiser brands. If you are looking for a sailing yacht at Porto Cervo, we have connections within the YCCS community.

Start your searchWe provide full buyer representation at Porto Cervo. This means: we search the entire market on your behalf (including off-market boats that are only available through broker networks), we arrange and accompany viewings with honest assessments, we coordinate surveys with local surveyors who know the Costa Smeralda fleet, we negotiate the purchase price based on real comparable data, and we manage the entire administrative process from contract to registration.
At Porto Cervo specifically, we also handle the berth question. Does the boat come with a berth? Is it transferable? What are the terms? If the boat doesn't include a berth, can we source one? These questions are critical at this marina and require local relationships that only a Porto Cervo specialist can provide.
We charge no buyer fee in most transactions — the seller pays the commission. In cases where we act solely as your buyer's agent, we agree a transparent fee before starting.
Buying a boat without a berth at Porto Cervo is possible but significantly more complex. Berth availability here is tight — especially for boats above 20 metres. If the boat you want comes with a transferable berth, that is a major advantage and should factor into your price evaluation.
If you need a berth independently, we can assist through our marina relationships. Options include: transferable berths available through other owners, seasonal contracts directly with the marina, and berths at nearby marinas (Porto Rotondo, Portisco, Poltu Quatu) if Porto Cervo availability is limited.
We always discuss the berth situation before you commit to a purchase. There is no point buying a boat at Porto Cervo if you cannot berth it there.
Boat price: The purchase price will reflect the Porto Cervo premium. We ensure you understand what is market-fair and what is overpriced, based on actual comparable sales data at this marina.
Berth: If the berth transfers with the boat, its value is factored into the purchase price. Annual berth fees will apply going forward — budget €15,000–€80,000+/year depending on boat size.
Survey: €800–€3,000 depending on boat size. We coordinate with trusted local surveyors.
Registration: Italian flag registration fees are modest (€200–€800). We handle the paperwork.
Brokerage fee: In most transactions, the buyer pays nothing — the seller covers the commission. We will always be transparent about this before we begin.
Yes — and we recommend it. We can arrange 3–5 viewings in a single day at Porto Cervo, plus additional viewings at nearby marinas (Porto Rotondo, Portisco, Poltu Quatu) within a short drive. We schedule the logistics and accompany you to every viewing.
Yes. A significant number of boats at Porto Cervo are available but not publicly listed — owners prefer discretion, or are testing the market through their broker before committing to a full listing. We have access to these boats through our established network at this marina.
We will assess alternative berth options at Porto Cervo and nearby marinas. In some cases, we can negotiate a new seasonal contract directly with the marina. We always resolve the berth question before you commit to a purchase.
Fly to Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (OLB), which has direct flights from most European cities. Porto Cervo is a 30-minute drive north. We can recommend accommodation and help plan your viewing trip.
It depends on where you plan to keep and use the boat. If you want to base in the Costa Smeralda area, buying at Porto Cervo saves relocation costs and gives you access to better-maintained boats with established berths. If you plan to base elsewhere in Sardinia, you may find better value at other marinas.
