Investments in the nautical sector are growing in northeastern Sardinia. D-Marin, a premium marina group (which currently manages 27 marinas in nine countries, with over 14,000 berths including more than 1,000 dedicated to superyachts, serving over 50,000 customers annually), has inaugurated a new phase of its development in Italy with the launch of the first operational phase of Molo Brin, the new dock dedicated to maxi yachts located in the heart of Olbia. The facility, which began welcoming the first boats on August 2, offers 20 berths for yachts from 40 to 150 meters. Moreover, it will be able to host some of the largest yachts in the world. Additionally, the location is considered privileged due to its proximity to the city center, Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport, and the ferry terminal. Not only that, from Olbia, yachts can easily reach some of the most renowned destinations in the Mediterranean, including Costa Smeralda, Tavolara, the Maddalena Archipelago, and Corsica.

“The start of activities at Molo Brin represents an important milestone for D-Marin and the city of Olbia,” comments Andrea De Santis, COO of D-Marin. “The vision and commitment of Gian Pietro Sirca, Board Member of Moys, have helped to give new life to this strategic area of the city waterfront, making it possible to create a facility dedicated to large yachts.”
The facility will guarantee essential services including mooring and unmooring assistance, security, surveillance, and parking. “At this stage,” the group emphasizes, “access will be reserved for yacht owners and crews moored at the facility.”

Once completed, the project will be operational from June 2027 and, as highlighted by the business group, will include D-Marin offices, new reception and welcome areas, as well as spaces dedicated to dining, contributing to the enhancement of the entire Olbia waterfront.
“Digital services and benefits reserved for D-Marin customers will be progressively introduced at Molo Brin as well,” the company concludes, “including the D-Marin App for managing moorings, smart technologies for monitoring boats, and exclusive services dedicated to the Group’s customers.”
