The cluster sits in the built-up area of Olbia, on the Gulf of Olbia on the northeast Sardinian coast. Within about 15 km there are the granite coastlines and beaches around Pittulongu, Bados and Porto Istana, and the island and marine area of Tavolara–Punta Coda Cavallo offshore. Tavolara, a limestone massif rising directly from the sea, is the dominant natural feature in the area. Olbia is a city of over 50,000 residents with a port, airport, commercial areas and continuous urban fabric, so the immediate living environment is urban rather than open countryside. The area is known as the gateway to the Costa Smeralda and for beaches, boating and access to the marine protected coast east of the city.
