Full description
Indiana Jones was looking for the Lost Ark, we are content to find the bluest cove in Sardinia. And guess what? We know exactly where it is. If you have an adventurous spirit but prefer to avoid stone traps and prefer a snappy dinghy, you've come to the right place.
On this 4-hour excursion, you will sail the waters of the Tavolara Marine Protected Area. With an experienced skipper to guide you, you will discover that the real treasure is the seabed of Molara.

What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Olbia (SS) . Awaiting us will be the skipper who will accompany us on our excursion and, after a quick briefing, we will be ready to set sail!
We will initially sail towards the spectacular granite formations of Capo Ceraso, which we will reach in about half an hour. Here we will stop for our first 40-minute swim in the enchanting inlet of Poltu Casu: we will be able to dive among the rocks and snorkel to admire the marine life that populates this stretch of coastline.
We will then continue towards the imposing Tavolara Island. We will be enchanted by its limestone cliffs falling sheer into the sea; we will stop at anchor for 40 minutes right under these impressive walls to enjoy the view and a swim in a unique setting, without going ashore.
After only ten minutes of sailing, we will reach the famous Piscine di Molara. Here the water is so clear that it seems unreal and the fish are plentiful: we will have another 40 minutes for the last, unforgettable swim. During the various stops, the skipper will serve us one water and cool drinks to recharge our batteries.
Finally, we will begin the return trip to the port of departure, admiring the profile of the Gallura coastline one last time.
The activity will last a total of 4 hours.
