Full description
Who said that dreams vanish at dawn? Sometimes they start at sunset!
Join an inflatable boat tour from Olbia at sunset in the province of Sassari. Aboard a comfortable dinghy, you will sail to Figarolo Island to snorkel and, with a bit of luck, spot dolphins in their natural habitat.
A two-and-a-half hour experience crowned by an authentic Sardinian aperitif on board, designed to switch off and be lulled by the emotions of the Gallura sea!
What we will do
The rendezvous is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Olbia (SS) . Here we will meet the skipper and board a comfortable dinghy, ready to set sail to discover the wonders of the Gulf of Olbia.
We will sail in the direction of Figarolo Island, an area famous for the sedentary presence of several families of cetaceans. During navigation, we will try to spot dolphins in their natural habitat, observing their water games and following them at a safe distance to respect their tranquillity, while the warm colours of sunset begin to tint the sea.
Upon reaching the island, we will stop offshore for a stop of about 40 minutes. This will be the perfect time to dive into the beautiful waters of Sardinia and do some snorkelling with the equipment provided on board by the skipper.
Before reversing course, we will enjoy a typical Sardinian aperitif on board with local salami, olives, pecorino cheese and the inevitable pane carasau, all accompanied by prosecco or soft drinks.
The experience lasts a total of two and a half hours.
