The Best Way to Explore the Sardinian Coast & Sea

What a wonderful day-long experience exploring the beautiful coastline and waters of the Mediterranean Sea! The catamaran we were on was a beautiful, well-maintained boat, and our guide for the day - Max - made everyone feel safe and comfortable. There were a total of 12 people on the boat, so there was plenty of room to spread out, relax and not feel crowded in any way. Max took us to 4 different snorkling spots, fed us wonderful Sardinian food and drink, and was the perfect host all around. We loved our day on the water and view it as one of the highlights of our time in the Alghero region. We highly recommend!

A must do. Excellent tour. Great value for money.

We were so fortunate to be guided to the local eating establishments by Bjorn. His knowledge of Cagliari history and his enthusiasm in showing Sardinia at its best was a win. Lots of good authentic food. Plenty of water and drink. Not too much walking. Easy pace.

August Sailing

Make sure you get to the port 2 hours before sail time, parking fills up fast and is stressful! Once on the boat it was fantastic, Stan our captain was awesome and so accommodating. Umberto cooked an unbelievable sauce and was fantastic. 100% recommend this crew!! Thanks for an unforgettable day.

Allison_O, Aug 2026

Incredible!!! Highlight of the trip!!

This boat tour was absolutely amazing! The guide (Pierro) was fantastic—he mainly spoke Italian but did his best to explain everything in English, and we really appreciated the effort. The boat was incredibly spacious and comfortable, which made the experience feel almost like a private tour. The guide took us to all the best spots, and the water was INSANELY blue! 💙 It was honestly one of the best days of our entire trip. Do not wait to book this tour!!!! We highly, highly recommend it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ just make sure to meet at the pier, and not the bar, they were waiting by the boat instead of the bar as per the instructions.

Wonderful Experience e

Augustine and Teresa were above and beyond great captains and guides. They took wonderful care of our six year old daughter and us. We loved the trip/tour; they were helpful, knowledgeable, and the food/drink were impeccable. They both spoke multiple languages for different parties on board. Our only complaint is that we wish the company would allow for a bigger boat or fewer customers on the trip as it made the boat a little cramped but that wasn't something Augustine or Teresa could control. We highly recommend this if you want to spend all day in crystal clear water while having amazing food and drinks with amazing company.

A fantastic experience...

A fantastic experience and a perfect day at sea! We were traveling with two young children and were initially a little worried about how they would handle the catamaran trip, but there was absolutely no need to worry. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, friendly, and attentive, which made the kids feel comfortable and happy from the very beginning. We all had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this experience, especially for families traveling with children!

Amazing Catamaran Boat Tour Experience

Absolutely fantastic catamaran boat tour! We had such an amazing day from start to finish. The boat was beautiful and comfortable, the scenery was incredible, and the whole experience was so relaxing and enjoyable. The crew were friendly, professional and made sure everyone had a great time. We visited some stunning spots, enjoyed swimming in the crystal-clear water, had delicious food and wine and had plenty of time to simply sit back and take in the beautiful coastline. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip and an experience we won’t forget. Highly recommend! ☀️🌊⛵️

Amazing boat day!!

We had such a wonderful day on the boat! From beginning to end, the staff was incredibly friendly, organized, and helpful. They made sure everyone arrived on time, gave clear directions, and made the entire experience seamless. Throughout the day, we were treated to a delicious spread of meats, cheeses, and refreshing drinks, which was such a nice touch. We stopped at 2–3 stunning locations where we had plenty of time to swim, explore, and relax in the crystal-clear water. It truly ended up being one of the highlights of our trip—we honestly didn't want to leave! We couldn't have asked for a better experience. 10/10, highly recommend!

Amazing sailing adventure in the Maddalena Archipelago

Amazing to be under full sail for almost the whole day. The scenery in the Maddalena archipelago was sensational and we were treated especially well by Stan and Umberto. The swimming places that they found for us were exceptional. Fully recommend this cruise.

The best boat day!!!!

Wow!!!! What an amazing day touring la maddalena archipelago! Arguably one of the most beautiful places on earth! Our tour guides, lead by Guiseppe, were incredible! So much fun, so accommodating, and so knowledgeable. They had paddle boards and snorkel masks, and noodles for all to swim. Jumped off in so many locations. ....And the food!!! They prepared a beautiful spread at nearly every stop. And champagne, beer and juices for the kids. Top notch at every angle. I'd highly recommend for your family or friend adventurers!

A day excursion to La Maddalena

Catherine_O, July 2026

Highly recommend - this is a great day out.

This trip was great value. The crew were super helpful. Everything ran on time. Was a bit confusing at Palau as we had no real information about which boat to get on and there are many, many trips going at the same time. It’s a green boat! The only green boat. So wait for that one at pier 5. You can pre order lunch once you are on the boat (we didn’t - we took our own food). Spargi is absolutely stunning. Our favourite stop on the trip. Take snorkels and swim from beach to beach. Information on the boat is in Italian, English and Spanish. There’s a cover on the upper deck so you don’t burn to a crisp. For info: there’s a huge carpark very near to the embarkation point. Lots of free spaces and reasonably priced for the day. Overall it’s a really well thought out experience and we would recommend it!

Madalina_T, June 2026

Amazing boat trip experience

Great experience; everything was very well organized, everything on time; nice hosts. The boat is quite new and very comfortable; they were also cooking on the boat, we even had a quick stop for swimming while they cooked hot nutella pancakes. They serve drinks. The guide is in Italian, English, French and Spanish. The places we saw are absolutely surreal and enough time in each stop for beach time or town visiting. Totally worth it and amazing value for money!
