Greener Future

Forte Village has always been strongly committed to sustainable development through the introduction and implementation of a wide range of initiatives in different areas to reduce environmental impact.


Reducing plastic waste, safeguarding the delicate ecosystem with more than 3000 species of plants and flowers found in the resort, decreasing CO2 emissions by utilising efficient and renewable technologies and implementing water reuse and waste recycling programmes are just some of the actions the resort has been implementing.



May 2024 will see the achievement of a very important project, in cooperation with the Italian firm Ogyre Plastic and the network of local fishermen community: the collection of 1000 kg of plastic waste in a year, an active action to help keeping the Sardinian sea clean.
