Private Catamaran Cruise to the Archipelago of La Maddalena

About this tour

Set sail from Poltu Quatu on Jalima, a spacious Lagoon 40 catamaran, for an 8–9 hour voyage through Sardinia's La Maddalena archipelago. Your young, knowledgeable skippers navigate pristine waters whilst you feast on freshly caught fish, local cheeses and Sardinian wines from respected producers. Snorkel in crystalline coves, paddle on calm waters, and anchor at remote islands where few tourists venture. This is leisurely sailing with proper food and drink—no rushed itineraries.

Highlights

• Spacious catamaran with experienced local skippers
• Three anchored stops with snorkelling and SUP
• Fresh seafood lunch with island cheese and wine
• Morning aperitivo with Sardinian charcuterie
• Access to remote, lesser-known coves
• Full snorkelling kit and paddle boards included

What to expect

The day unfolds at a natural pace. After departure, you'll arrive at your first stop where a spread of local cured meats, cheeses and chilled wine appear—no processed shortcuts here. The second or third anchorage brings a proper lunch: grilled fish or pasta with seafood, local cheese, espresso. Between swims, you can paddle out on a board or simply float and read. Your skipper picks sheltered bays based on wind and mood, not a fixed script. The catamaran's layout means genuine space to move about; families with small children manage easily, and service animals travel without fuss.
