Full description
Can you smell that too? No, it’s not just the sea air – it’s the aroma of Campidanese-style malloreddus, ready to be served piping hot on board!
Join us for a wonderful day sailing inthe Maddalena Archipelago in Sardinia. With an experienced skipper at the helm, you’ll spend 8 hours exploring unspoilt paradises such as Spargi and Budelli, alternating between dives and refreshing swims and a fantastic traditional lunch. We look forward to seeing you!
What we will do
We’ll meet 10 minutes before departure at 9. 00 am at the meeting point in La Maddalena (SS). The skipper who will be taking us on our excursion will be waiting for us there. We’ll board the elegant Oceanis sailing yacht and, after a quick briefing on the rules on board and safety procedures, we’ll set sail towards the wonders of the national park.
We’ll sail, lulled by the wind, towards the island of Spargi, where we’ll admire the famous Cala Corsara. Depending on the wind conditions, the skipper will choose the best coves in which to drop anchor for our first swimming stops. We’ll be able to dive into the turquoise waters using the snorkelling gear and SUPs provided on board, or reach the fine sandy beaches via the comfortable tender.
The route will continue towards the island of Budelli, where we’ll stop near the magnificent Spiaggia dei Cavalieri and the stunning natural pool at Porto della Madonna. Here, surrounded by unspoilt nature, we’ll make another stop for a swim before the crew serves an aperitif featuring tomato bruschetta, local cold cuts and cheeses, the ever-present guttiau bread and fresh seasonal fruit. This will be followed by lunch: we’ll enjoy a first course of malloreddus, accompanied by coffee and an exceptional open bar with wine, beer, Coca-Cola, Fanta and fresh water.
In the afternoon, we’ll head towards the island of Santa Maria or other hidden gems such as Cala Granara or Cala Conneri for the third swim of the day. Finally, we’ll enjoy the relaxing return to port as the sun begins to set over the horizon.
The activity ends at around 5. 00 pm, lasting a total of 8 hours.
