Full description
Have you ever dreamed of feeling like a real sea dog? Then cast off your moorings and get ready to discover the Gulf of Olbia with a day's sailing!
Together with an experienced skipper, you will sail past mythological stories and historic lighthouses, exploring granite inlets and limestone islands that seem to have emerged from another world. Between a stop for a dip at Cape Ceraso and a dolphin sighting at Figarolo, you will experience a day of pure relaxation.
And if hunger strikes, the crew takes care of it with a full fish lunch and a toast overlooking the sea!
What we will do
The appointment is at 09: 30, or 30 minutes before departure, at the meeting point in Olbia (SS) . Awaiting us will be the skipper, ready to welcome us on board and introduce us to the secrets of sailing before we cast off our moorings.
We will begin our navigation by crossing the inner gulf, admiring the famous lighthouse of the Bocca Island. Our first stop will be Cape Ceraso, where we will anchor among granite islets to enjoy our first swim of the day. While we relax in the water with SUPs or snorkelling equipment, the skipper will prepare an aperitif with snacks and drinks to recharge our batteries.
Once we get back on course, we will decide together on the second destination depending on the wind: we can head towards the majestic Tavolara Island or head north towards Figarolo. Here the chances of spotting dolphins are very high! During this stopover of about two hours, lunch will be served on board: a menu with an appetiser, a seafood starter, dessert, fruit, coffee and excellent local wine.
In the afternoon, we will continue to sail slowly, letting ourselves be lulled by the waves and consulting the marine fauna guides available on board to recognise the fish observed. This will be the perfect opportunity to take incredible photos of the area's most hidden reefs and coves.
Finally, we will return to the starting point by sailing back to port. The activity will last about 8 hours in total.
