Full description
POV: you are looking for the most beautiful sea in the world. And you have found it.
Discover the Maddalena Archipelago with a full-day dinghy excursion: starting from Palau or La Maddalena, you will sail to Spargi, Budelli and Caprera in search of the most spectacular spots to dive into.
Get ready, because your conception of 'blue' is about to change radically!
What we will do
The rendezvous is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Palau (SS) or La Maddalena (SS), to be chosen at the time of booking. Awaiting us will be the crew who will accompany us on our excursion to the Maddalena Archipelago!
We will start the navigation heading towards the island of Spargi. We will sail along Porto Rafael and the eastern side of the island until we reach Cala Soraya. Here we will make our first swim stop of about an hour and a half: we can dive directly from the dinghy or swim to the beach to feel the sand under our feet. We will then continue to the island of Budelli for a photo stop in front of the famous Pink Beach.
Afterwards, we will move to a jetty located behind the beach for a lunch break (packed) and another swim, before re-boarding and heading to the Piscine Naturali, where the water reaches incredible shades of colour. Here we will have another hour and a half to swim and test our stability on the SUP board available on board.
In the afternoon we will sail to the island of Santa Maria to admire it from the sea, then leave the smaller islands behind to explore La Maddalena and Caprera. We will enjoy the views of Porto Massimo, Cala Lunga and Testa del Polpo. We will make another stop of about 60-90 minutes in one of Caprera's coves, usually Cala Caprarese, passing also by Cala Napoletana, Cala Serena and Cala Garibaldi.
The return trip will be along the island of Santo Stefano, with a scenic passage in front of the Roccia dell'Orso (Bear Rock) and the Napoleonic forts. After a final tour of wonders, we will return to the port of departure. During the tour, each participant will be offered a soft drink of their choice and a flute of prosecco, as well as fresh fruit, chips and water.
The activity will last a total of 8 hours.
