What we will do
We will be met at the pier in Cannigione at 8.50 a.m., where we will be welcomed by the shore staff of Motor Yacht Virginia. The boat will arrive around 9.20 a.m. and we will be able to board to begin our mini-cruise to theMaddalena Archipelago.
After a few minutes of sailing we will be able to admire Roccia Dell'Orso, a sort of natural sculpture that towers 120 metres above the sea. We will then come across the small village of Porto Rafael with its small white houses reflected in the sea.
Leaving the seaside village behind, we stop at the enchanting Cala dell'Amore. This is a beautiful inlet in the bay ofSpargi Island, where we will be able to stop for a swim of about an hour.
Back on board we will continue on to Porto della Madonna, where we will moor for a second swimming stop. Thanks to the exclusive mooring reserved for the Motor Yacht Virginia, we will have the chance to enjoy a unique experience: a swim in the wonderful Budelli Natural Pools.
After about an hour, we will resume sailing to get as close as possible to a paradisiacal beach that has been a Unesco Natural World Heritage Site since 1994. This is the Spiaggia Rosa (Pink Beach), where both access and bathing are prohibited.
The last stop on our cruise is the historic centre of La Maddalena. We will have about an hour to visit the town with its pastel-coloured houses, the Garibaldi Column and the Church of Santa Maria Maddalena. We will then return on board the boat to sail back to the starting point.
The excursion will last about 7 hours in total.
