Cala Gonone: Gulf of Orosei Dinghy Excursion with Skipper
Every day we depart from the port of Cala Gonone at 8.30 am or 10:30 am for a beautiful dinghy excursion in the Gulf of Orosei.(12 people onthe boat). Our advice is to opt for the earliest departure so as to minimize the time of boarding and leaving the port, which is less busy at 9 am. The Captains, experienced guides who will give you a detailed and interesting explanation during the sailing, will take you to the most beautiful and picturesque beaches (you will see them all) : Cala Luna , Cala Sisine, Cala Biriola, Le Piscine di Venere, Cala Mariolu, and Cala Goloritzè. (During the beach stops it will not be possible to stay on board due to organizational needs of the Captain) . Leaving port, our captains will conduct a coastal navigation to allow you to admire up close the wonders of the stretch of coastline from Cala Gonone to Cala Goloritzè. During the navigation, our dinghies will be able to get close to many of the wonderful caves and inlets along the coast, such as Grotta dei Cormorani, Grotta Azzurra, the Cathedral and the Turquoise; in some you will also be able to swim inside. This will be followed by a stop at Cala Biriola, a delightful little beach with a pinkish color and emerald-colored water, and a leisurely swim at anchor in the heavenly, crystal-clear waters of the Piscine di Venere, continuing then to the wonderful Cala Goloritzè where you will make another stop for a swim very close to the natural arch adjacent to the beach. Back on board, the captain will set course for Cala Mariolu where you will make the longest stop of the day so you can eat, rest and bathe for about 2 1/2 hours (or more, particularly with the 9:00 a.m. departure). During lunch you can use the umbrellas (each 2 people) that you can ask the captain for before disembarking. In the afternoon you will resume sailing to reach the beautiful Cala Luna, which is even more pleasant in the afternoon as it is very crowded until 2 p.m. Here guests can stop for 2 hours for a refreshing swim. Return to port for this type of dinghy excursion is scheduled for 16:30 pm./17.00 pm Important information: - For the 9.00 a.m. start CHECK IN MUST BE DONE NO LATER THAN 8.30 a.m., IN CASE OF DELAY A REFUND WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE - For the 10.30 a.m. start CHECK IN MUST BE DONE NO LATER THAN 10.00 a.m., IN CASE OF DELAY A REFUND WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE Parking possibilities: -From 1 June to 15 September: at the entrance to the village, at the roundabout where the restaurant la poltrona is, there is free parking, a small train or shuttle bus arrives there every 10 to 15 minutes at a cost of 1 euro per person.
