From Sant'Antioco: San Pietro Island or Masua Boat Tour

From Sant'Antioco: San Pietro Island or Masua Boat Tour

Departing from the marina of Sant'Antioco, in south-western Sardinia, you have the opportunity to live a daily experience on board a maxi dinghy to discover San Pietro island or Masua. Our experienced skipper will decide the best route according to the wind of the day, but in both cases you will not be disappointed! He will tell you stories and anecdotes of these fantastic places, where you can swim and snorkel, between clear waters and really unforgettable. You can get to know San Pietro island and its coves, between the old Tonara and the forts rich in many stories, and still stops for dives and baths from the dinghy, but also a stop on Giunco beach and an hour on the ground to discover the unmissable village of Carloforte, with its colorful streets and views of the sea. Or, if the wind is more favourable for the route to Masua, you can explore the seabed in front of the Rock of Pan di Zucchero, Porto Flavia, Grotta Sardegna and a stop on Cala Domestica beach. Finally, a delicious aperitif of typical Sardinian products will be served on board.

A bit bumpy at first. We had deliberately booked the tour in English. We were also at the meeting point early. The nice captain, I wasn't sure, only wanted to speak Italian and was very unfriendly at first. After calling the organizer, he answered in Italian and hung up. Uncertainty spread. I spoke to him again, looked at his app: look, we're in the right place. Why didn't we do that straight away? It's called customer focus. Then we set off on time. No introduction to the tour and no official English guides. OK, that was sorted out, the son's girlfriend and a fellow passenger helped us in English. Otherwise, no information... Well, it was the island Pietro tour... the captain and owner of the boat slowly thawed out and it turned into a nice trip. Nice lunch in a small group, swimming stops, great. The 60-minute stop in the town of Carloforte was unfortunately unnecessary, it was too hot and siesta time. Thank you!

Highly recommended experience. Corrado organized a perfect tour around the island of San Pietro with a stop in Carloforte: magnificent places and excellent entertainment. We were supposed to leave on Friday, but to avoid rough seas, he moved us to Saturday. We left Sant'Antioco and took our first dip at Isola Piana, then headed for Grotta del Pulpito, Grotta delle Oche, and Grotta dell'Organo. We took our second dip at Cala Vinagra (amazing!) and then, after a third dip, we had lunch on the boat at Cala Lisca (an excellent platter of cold cuts and cheeses accompanied by Sardinian Vermentino wine and finished off with a delicious limoncello cream). After stopping for a tour of Carloforte, we took our last swim at the shoal opposite Cala Giunco. But this is just an example because the itinerary can change to suit the weather and sea conditions!

Amazing trip! Corrado is a real expert guide, you feel safe with him. We sailed around the island of San Pietro with several stops to enjoy the crystal clear water and snorkel (the only ones with masks available on board!) and stopped in the town of Carloforte where we didn't even need to have lunch because a wonderful aperitif with Vermentino wine, dessert, and myrtle liqueur was offered on board in the beautiful setting of Cala Vinagra.

An excursion not to be missed with Corrado, very kind and discreet, proud of his island, who took the time to show us magical, wild places, far from tourist places crowded with people. Don't miss this suspended moment...

It was a wonderful day thanks to the fantastic skipper Corrado. We saw things we would never have seen otherwise. Thank you so much!
