About this tour
Spend a full day sailing through the crystalline waters of La Maddalena archipelago off the Sardinian coast. Your skipper navigates between hidden coves and postcard-worthy beaches while you alternate between the deck and the water. Snorkel in transparent shallows, paddle out on a SUP board, and anchor for long stretches in your favourite spot. The galley keeps you fed with Sardinian classics and local wines throughout the eight to nine hours.
Highlights
- Sail among granite islands with minimal tourist infrastructure
- Snorkel gear and SUP board included; explore at your own pace
- Sardinian appetisers, pasta, and wines served on board
- Skip crowded beach clubs; anchor where you choose
- Eight to nine hours with the same crew, no schedule pressure
What to expect
You'll depart in the morning and motor or sail into the archipelago depending on conditions. Most of the day is spent swimming and floating rather than sailing continuously. The boat stops at two or three locations, anchoring long enough to decompress. Lunch is a casual affair—you eat on deck, dip back in, then rest in the shade. Snorkelling happens in shallow, calm bays where visibility is excellent. If you bring a SUP, expect gentle paddling between sandy patches and rocky outcrops. The crew handles navigation and safety; your job is to relax.
Good to know
Bring sunscreen and a hat; shade on deck is limited. The boat works best in calm seas; rough conditions may curtail snorkelling or change the route. Swimming ability is not required, but the coastline is undeveloped—bring any personal items you'll need for the full day.
