Full description

Embark on an adventure to discover the stunning coastline and outlying islands of Sardinia on a boat. Cruise to the islands of Spargi, La Maddalena, and Santa Maria, and enjoy their pristine beaches, waters, and nature.

 

Check-in between 9:00 AM and 10:15 AM, leave Palau at 10:30 AM, and cruise towards the wonderful island of Spargi. When the boat arrives, take your beach bags straight onto the white sandy beaches of Cala Corsara, and choose to sunbathe, snorkel, or explore some of the cove's historical features.

 

Go along the coast towards the island of Budelli for a photographic stop at the famous Pink Beach, the Spiaggia Rosa. Enter the natural swimming pool of Porto Della Madonna for photos, where the emerald color of the water will take your breath away. 

 

Head to the island of Santa Maria for the next beach stop. Sunbathe, swim, or go on a walk to the old lighthouse. Depending on what day you visit, end the tour at a swimming stop in the natural aquarium at Cala Coticcio or the charming historical center of La Maddalena for shopping and exploring.

The best trip i have ever made. The islands, sea, nature are so beautiful. The organisation was great. For that price its well worth it - maybe even going twice (i would do that if i had an extra vacation day). So go - enjoy in a beautiful experience

Very comprehensive tour and good amount of time at each stop. The crew was friendly, but we couldn't barely hear the explanations at each of the beaches. Boat was a bit packed, would have been nicer to have a have a bit more space. Good cost benefit if you want to get to know those nice islands in Sardinia.

It was an amazing experience! The check in and the meeting point were easy to find, and the landscapes were magnificent. I recommend this excursion to anyone that want to see stunning beaches and crystal clear waters. Reading the previous comments, I was expecting a very full boat, but it was not the case. Thank you to the crew for this incredible day!
