You will experience a day discovering the colours and flavours of Sardinia:aperitif, lunch (and myrtle, of course) are included!
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before 10:00 a.m. at the meeting point in Stintino (SS). We will be welcomed by the skipper who will take us on this sailing boat tour of the Asinara Park!
Once all the participants have gathered aboard Mariù, we will set sail from Stintino and in half an hour's sailing we will reach the Piscine Naturali di Fornelli (Fornelli Natural Pools), where we will stop for our first swim of the day and enjoy an aperitif on board consisting of a platter of typical cold cuts and cheeses accompanied by wine, beer, or a soft drink.
Afterwards, we will continue our route to penetrate into the waters of the Asinara National Park, stopping in the coves that the skipper will choose according to the conditions of the day, such as the suggestive Punta Lunga, the wild Cala li Giorri, and many others. It will be very easy to reach the shore of these beautiful beaches by swimming: the skipper's word!
Towards lunchtime, we will be served lunch prepared on board, consisting of a first course of fregola sarda with crab, typical sweets, coffee, and the inevitable myrtle, to toast in company! With our bellies full, we will resume sailing towards the island's other coves or alternatively towards Capo Falcone, until we reach La Pelosa beach. Here, we will take ourlast dive of the day and have a small snack of fresh fruit.
We will finally return to Stintino around 17:30; the excursion will last about 7½ hours in total.
