L'Area Naturale Marina Protetta Tavolara - Punta Coda Cavallo
2 hours
We depart early in the morning from Poltu Quatu, with “Vento” (the boat name). We navigate south, skirting the Costa Smeralda with its pink granite rocks and hidden bays. In about an hour, there it is: Tavolara, that limestone giant emerging from the sea like an ancient king, with its sheer cliffs and sea beds rich in dancing Posidonia grass underwater. We anchor in a quiet bay, such as Spalmatore di Terra, for a dream swimming stop – dives into turquoise waters, snorkeling with the masks we provide, discovering colorful fish and starfish.

Capo Figari
3 hours
After a Sardinian aperitif on board – local cured meats, crunchy pane carasau, fresh vegetables, and a sparkling prosecco to toast to life – we head back out to sea towards Capo Figari and Figarolo, near Golfo Aranci. This area is a paradise for marine life lovers: there is a well-known colony of bottlenose dolphins, which makes the area super popular for dolphin watching. High probability of sightings (around 80%, as local experts say), but without guarantees because they are wild animals. We observe them from a respectful distance – no shouting, no food, just pure admiration so as not to disturb them. It is a magical moment: the dolphins darting next to the boat, their glossy backs shining in the sun, and you there capturing photos that will last forever.

Costa Smeralda
3 min
The heart of the activity is around the Isola di Figarolo, with its rugged cliffs and crystalline coves. We anchor for another stop: a refreshing swim and snorkeling at Cala Moresca or a nearby cove, where the water is so clear you see the seabed like in a natural aquarium. “High probability of sightings (around 80%, as local experts say), but no guarantees because they are wild animals, you know? We observe them from a respectful distance – no shouting, no food, just pure admiration so as not to disturb them.“
