Full description

The Maddalena tour is one of the most appreciated and requested by tourists visiting Sardinia. This fascinating boat tour offers a unique experience, combining breathtaking views, history, nature, and relaxation.

The tour begins with a Minibus transfer from the meeting point to the Cannigione port, where the boarding takes place. During the navigation, we will coast the islands of Caprera and Santo Stefano, before finally reaching the island of Maddalena, the heart of the archipelago, where there will be a one-hour stop. The town center of Maddalena is the only one in the archipelago and offers a charming mix of history, culture, and local traditions. Founded in 1770, the town overlooks the village of Palau, just 20 minutes by ferry. During the stop, you will have the opportunity to shop, visit the historic center, the Town Hall (which houses an unexploded bomb fired by Napoleon’s troops during the French expedition), the Naval Museum, and the Diocesan Museum of Sacred Art.

After the visit, we will resume navigation towards the most beautiful islands of the archipelago. The islands of Spargi and Santa Maria are especially appreciated for their crystal-clear waters and unspoiled beaches. Two stops of about an hour each will be made on these islands, where you can swim in the transparent waters, go snorkeling, or simply relax on the beach under the sun.

At lunchtime, a delicious tomato pasta will be served on board by the crew. A perfect moment to relax and enjoy the breathtaking view of the archipelago.

Afterward, the tour will continue with a scenic ride along the Manto della Madonna, a stretch of sea with shallow waters, and we will coast around the island of Budelli, famous for its pink beach, one of Sardinia's most iconic. The itinerary continues along the coast, passing by Punta Sardegna, Porto Raphael, Palau, and the famous Capo d'Orso, offering incredible views.

Return to Cannigione is expected between 5pm and 5:30pm , where you will take the Minibus back to the meeting point.
