We start sailing along the north-eastern coast of Sardinia, sailing between the island of Caprera and the island of Santo Stefano. Once in La Maddalena, the first stop includes an hour doing some shopping or walking through the historic center.
We set off again along the island of La Maddalena, the south side where you can admire the characteristic port of Cala Gavetta, at the top Guardia Vecchia and the majestic Villa Weber where Benito Mussolini spent a month and a half of his life in exile.
Once on the island of Spargi, we stop for about an hour and a half, for a swim.
After about 20 minutes of navigation along the famous Strait of Bonifacio, where you can see from distance Corsica’s island, you arrive on the island of Budelli to admire the prestigious Pink Beach, here there will be a short photo stop and then we will head to the Madonna’s Port (known as the Natural Pools), so called because of the transparency of its water that turns on different shades of color. Here we can jump for a short swim from the boat. The last stop will be at the Island of Santa Maria (Cala Santa Maria), the island with some private houses (including that of Roberto Benigni). Here we will stop for approx. 1 hr 15 min.
Returning to the port of departure, from distance we see the smaller islands that complete the Archipelago: Barrettini, Barrettinelli, Corcelli and Isola Piana.Along the western part of La Maddalena, we show you, Punta Marginetto, the northernmost point of the island, the church of La Madonnetta overlooking the sea, the French Cave and Punta Tegge.
Leaving the coasts of the mother island, we can admire Porto Rafael, the town of Palau, and the rock of Capo d’Orso; finally, skirting the islands of Santo Stefano and Caprera, you will return to the port of departure.
