Full description
Some people choose a sailing boat, others a rubber dinghy, and others a yacht. And you’re the last one!
Aboard Lupo , a fun day ’s sailing awaits you between Golfo Aranci and the most beautiful coves in the surrounding area.
Dolphins on the horizon, seabeds to explore, a Sardinian aperitif and lunch will be the ingredients that make every minute of this adventure unforgettable!
What we will do
We’ll meet 15 minutes before the scheduled time in Golfo Aranci (SS). The captain and the hostess will welcome us aboard the yacht Lupo, a fully restored historic vessel.
The day will begin with coffee and Sardinian amaretti biscuits, before we set off for the islet of Figarolo, where it is often possible to spot dolphins swimming close to the boats.
During the cruise, there will be several stops for a swim in the area’s most picturesque bays, such as Cala Sabina, Cala Banana, Cala del Sonno, Nodu Pianu, Isola dei Porri, Terrata, Bados or Sos Aranzos. Each cove, viewed from the sea, has its own unique charm: crystal-clear water, light-coloured seabed and a peaceful atmosphere that allows you to fully enjoy the scenery. Depending on the weather conditions, the skipper will select the best stops.
Subject to availability and current regulations, on some days it may be possible to sail closer to the areas around Tavolara and Molara. The route will always be determined by the skipper in full compliance with regulations and sea conditions.
To enhance our excursion, on board we will enjoy a traditional aperitif with cold cuts, cheeses and carasau bread, followed by a lunch of pasta with fresh seafood, fresh seasonal fruit and a taste of mirto. Drinks are also included: Vermentino wine, beer, soft drinks and water.
The activity will last a total of 8 hours.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for everyone, with no age limit; minors must be accompanied by an adult.
The boat is not wheelchair-accessible or for people with mobility disabilities.
Life jackets and lifebuoys are available on board for those who cannot swim.
