Day 1   Portisco - Tavolara

On the first day you will be shown on board your yacht, meet the crew and explore the ship. After a briefing concerning the basics of yacht steering and safety at sea, we will set off for our first cruise. Passing along Cala Figari, Olbi Gulf and dropping anchor at the south coast of the Tavola island, we will enjoy swimming and snorkelling in the wonderful Spalmatore bay, just in front of a lovely beach. The evening can be spent either with a glass of Italian wine on board, with stars overhead, or in a local restaurant.

Day 2   Tavolara - Caprera

Leaving Spalmatore bay, we will sail to the La Madalena National Park in the north. We will make a stop at the islands Soffi and Mortoriotto and take a bathe or a dive. This day´s goal ist the marvellous Porto Palma bay at the island Caprera, an ideal anchorage for the night.  A short stroll will bring us to to the top of the rock from which we will watch the sun set and the rock and the sandy beach become pink. Then we will have a delicious meal and spend the night on board with stars above, like true yachtsmen.

Day 3   Caprera - Bonifacio

On this day, we will be sailing under the flag of France as we will be heading for the stunning town of Bonifacio, through the Lavezzi island. Lavezzi is a jumble of smoothly rounded boulders of the most surprising forms and sizes. Having explored Lavezzi and after a bathe and chill out, we continue our sail to Bonifacio. Rest assured that this town and its atmosphere will take your breath away. You will remember those high cliffs, the walls of the ancient fortress, narrow streets, the picturesque architecture and the history present on every step forever. We will do our best to fully explore the beauty of this town.

Day 4   Bonifacio - Bunelli

Once again will we have the opportunity to admire the majestic cliffs and walls of Bonifacio. We will sail underneath them and become fully aware of this beauty of nature as well as the skills of humans. Now we will be looking forward to a wonderful white sandy beach and an adjacent shallow in the southeast part of the island, only several kilometres from Bonifacio. We will enjoy pleasures of swimming and snorkelling with an underwater scooter in emerald water and sunbathing on board of our vessel. After a delicious lunch, we will return to Italian territorial waters and sail towards Razzoli, Bunelli and Santa Maria islands. This archipelago is part of the La Madalena National Park and and anchoring in this spot is always a pleasure. I bet you will love the night spent in this enchanting bay.

Day 5   Bunelli - La Madalena

The short route planned for this day won´t be any less interesting or exciting than the previous ones. Relaxation, swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing is all this day will be about. Only few spots are more beautiful than the beaches of Bunelli and Spargi. We will spend a lazy day in wonderful nature. Arriving in La Madalena in the evening, we will leave our yacht in the marina and take a walk in the city and have a glass of delicious wine.

Day 6   La Madalena - Porto Cervo

The goal of this day´s route is Porto Cervo, the main centre of Costa Smeralda, a prestigious seaside resort with holiday houses of numerous celebrities. In Porto Cervo there are houses of various types and colours, built only recently around the natural port and on adjacent slopes. Of course, we will interrupt the sailing again and make a stop to enjoy the pleasures offered by the summer, explore new beaches and spots only accessible with a vessel. The evening will be spent either on the yacht or in the town.

Day 7   Porto Cervo - Portisco

On the way to our home port, we will again enjoy sailing in the sun as well as swimming and relaxation. We will make a stop near the islands Soffi and Mortorotto and enter the marina after sunset. We will spend our last evening in a cafe of the marina or on board our yacht.

Day 8   Portisco

The last day of our sailing trip and the last entry in the log book. Leaving the ship in late morning, we have plenty memorable and wonderful experience from this trip.
