What we will do
We set off at 09: 00 from Santa Teresa Gallura (SS). We’ll be welcomed by the skipper, who’ll be accompanying us on this enjoyable excursion.
Once all passengers have settled on board the dinghy, we’ll be ready to set off. After just 30 minutes’ sailing, we’ll be able to admire the famous Spiaggia Rosa, known for the colour of its sand and which has been a protected area for many years. Here you’ll be able to take some magnificent photographs from the dinghy.
We’ll continue towards the natural pools of Budelli, commonly known as the ‘Manto della Madonna’ (Our Lady’s Mantle) , so named for the distinctive colour of the sea there; here, weather and sea conditions permitting, you’ll be able to take a short swim from the dinghy.
We’ll then head towards the island of Santa Maria, where we’ll stop for an hour and a half on the dinghy, during which you can go for a swim and reach the beach by swimming.
We’ll continue with a scenic cruise around the islands of the archipelago until we reach the island of La Maddalena, where we’ll have an hour to explore the historic centre at your leisure or stop at one of the many little restaurants for lunch.
The final stop of the day will be at Spargi, known for its beaches of fine, white sand. We’ll anchor here for around two hours so you can take a dip in the turquoise waters.
We’ll finally return to the meeting point at 4. 45 pm, rounding off an experience lasting around 8 hours.
