Close Protection in Porto Cervo

Close protection in Porto Cervo, for the Costa Smeralda.

Discreet bodyguard services and secure transport for Ultra-High-Net-Worth individuals and families in Porto Cervo and across the Costa Smeralda.

Porto Cervo is the heart of Sardinia's Costa Smeralda, where a concentrated summer of superyachts, villas and a high-profile international crowd fills the marina and the hills. Protection here blends villa and yacht security with discreet movement.

Our operatives work the Mediterranean in season and understand where the Costa Smeralda's wealth gathers and how exposure peaks.

The local picture

A few local realities shape every plan we build in Porto Cervo:

  • Yacht and marina exposure. The superyacht marina and the waterfront are high-visibility settings for recognisable guests.
  • Villa security. Villas in the hills above the coast need managed access, staff and deliveries.
  • Seasonal surge. The population and risk picture change sharply in the summer season.
  • Event peaks. The sailing regattas and the social season bring influxes of high-value visitors.

Working within the local rules

Private security in Italy is licensed and supervised by the Prefettura, and our operatives work within that framework. Close protection in Porto Cervo is generally unarmed and built on villa and yacht security, planning and discreet movement.
