It was a stunning day in every way. Max was a wonderful host - generous, funny and multitalented. He moved between his roles of skipper, chef and entertainer seamlessly. A beautiful boat, an excellent itinerary and delicious food. So much food. We did a similar day trip earlier this week, that we loved, on the Emerald Coast. This was even better. Excellent value for money. Highly recommended on all aspects.

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!

One of the best catamaran experiences I've been on. Ive been on a couple experiences, mostly in the Caribbean where I believed a half day is good enough. We were extremely pleased that this experience was the full day experience. The captain took care of us from start to finish from snacks, drinks and great food. The swimming spots are beautiful and not too busy. I would deff visit again.

The best catamaran tour I have ever been on. Captain Max was an excellent host whose boat was immaculate. He was outgoing and friendly and cooked a great meal of fresh seafood preceded by great snacks. He made multiple stops for all of us to swim, snorkel, or paddle about. Truly an experience to remember.

Captain Max was warm and welcoming from the moment he greeted us. Not only that, he was an excellent cook and an even better sailer, I felt safe the entire time. With his paddle board, snorkel gear and beautiful boat, it’s hard not to have a great time. Highly recommend seeing Sardinia from the water with this tour- it was a day I’ll never forget!

This was one of the best day excursions I have ever done. From the moment we boarded the boat until we debarked, Max our captain took care of everything. He was a safe and hospitable captain and a fabulous chef. He stopped four or five times to allow us to swim and cool off. He fed us a delicious lunch of shrimp in a red sauce with pasta and a pesto dish. The boat was in excellent condition and had lots of amenities like snorkeling equipment and floats for the water. I would recommend this day trip 10/10!!!

From the moment we stepped aboard, Max made sure everyone was comfortable, relaxed, and having a great time. His friendliness, professionalism, and passion for what he does were evident throughout the entire trip.
The sailing route was spectacular, with breathtaking views of Capo Caccia, crystal-clear waters, and beautiful swimming spots that felt straight out of a postcard. Every stop seemed better than the last.
To make the experience even more special, Max personally prepared lunch for us on board, featuring delicious local products and accompanied by excellent wine. It felt less like a tour and more like spending the day with friends who happen to know the most beautiful corners of Sardinia.
The combination of stunning scenery, great food, fantastic wine, and genuine hospitality made this one of the highlights of our trip. If you’re considering a catamaran excursion in Alghero, don’t hesitate -this is an experience you’ll remember long after you’ve returned home.
A huge thank you to Max for an unforgettable day.

Solo travel. The 7ish hour boat ride was amazing. Random group of under 10 persons on board. Well worth the money, which I felt was a low cost, and to be out on the water- three swimming holes to stop and swim/cool off. Beautiful landscape. I will be rebooking later in the summer. Food was amazing and the hospitality was on point.

10/10 BEST boat experience we have had! We have done boat trips in France, Spain, & Italy and Max was by far the best captain! His boat was high class, he was so welcoming and friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and an amazing cook! He took us to the most beautiful places & also ensured my kids were entertained. 100% would recommend & well worth the price!

Our catamaran trip with Max in Alghero was absolutely fantastic. He’s not only a skilled skipper but also a consummate host -- warm, engaging, and full of insights about the area. The boat was wonderful, the food he prepared was amazing, and the picturesque spots he took us to made the experience unforgettable. From start to finish, it was one of the best catamaran trips we’ve ever had. We can’t recommend Max highly enough.

My friend and I had such an incredible day on Max's spotless Catamaran! He was friendly, enthusiastic and made sure we were well looked after all day.
The food he cooked on board was the best we had during our whole 5 days in Alghero plus there were always plenty of snacks and drinks for the fill day.
The swim and snorkelling spots were beautiful, the water so clear and it never felt rushed. We were so sad when the trip ended and could have done the whole day over again.

This catamaran exceeded every expectation — it was truly unforgettable! From the moment we set sail, everything was smooth, well-organized, and so much fun. The views were absolutely breathtaking — crystal-clear water, coastal landscapes, and perfect weather made it feel like a dream.
Max was an incredible Captain! The Food prepared was sensational and he cooked right within his kitchen. His attention to detail made the day so enjoyable and special. Would highly recommend !!
