The Italian government has abruptly halted a luxury camping project on the promontory of Cala Finanza, located in the municipality of Loiri Porto San Paolo in Gallura.
The decision effectively stops the development plan submitted by the Italo-Brazilian company Tavolara Bay Srl.
The intervention comes after significant local protests against the proposed resort.
Authorities cited the public opposition as the primary reason for blocking the initiative, which aimed to transform the sensitive coastal area into a high-end tourism destination.
This development mirrors broader tensions surrounding large-scale tourism projects in the Mediterranean.
Similar controversies have emerged in neighboring Albania, where protests have intensified over a planned luxury resort on the island of Sazan, spearheaded by Ivanka Trump’s company.
