Your sailing trip

A week sailing through the Costa Smeralda and the Bonifacio Strait, exploring hidden coves, turquoise bays and the islands of La Maddalena on a comfortable crewed catamaran.

Sail the Costa Smeralda on a seven night itinerary that follows the most scenic routes between Sardinia and southern Corsica. This cruise is designed for travellers who want quiet bays, clear water, gentle sailing and time to discover the islands of La Maddalena, Budelli, Spargi and Razzoli, together with the dramatic cliffs and old town of Bonifacio. The pace is relaxed and focuses on short sailing legs, long swimming stops and evenings spent at anchor in sheltered coves.

Each day includes a mix of coastal navigation, island hopping and time ashore in places like Tavolara, Molara or the panoramic viewpoints of Caprera. Depending on weather, especially the mistral, the captain may choose the best route toward the Lavezzi Islands, Cavallo or Santa Teresa, all known for shallow turquoise water and unique snorkeling spots. Meals on board follow the half board formula with fresh breakfasts and lunches prepared daily by the crew, while two evenings are free for guests to enjoy local restaurants on land.

The catamaran offers privacy and comfort, with a professional crew managing the itinerary, meals and safety during the entire journey. This sailing route is ideal for couples, friends and families looking for a week combining nature, sea time and some of the most iconic anchorages of the Mediterranean. The exact sequence of stops may change depending on weather, but the overall experience remains the same: a discovery of the Costa Smeralda and the Bonifacio Strait from the water, with quiet nights at anchor and clear bays for swimming every day.

Itinerary

Day 1
Olbia base to Cala Saline
Embarkation begins in the late afternoon at the marina in Olbia, where the crew welcomes you on board and introduces the boat. Once everyone is settled, the catamaran sets sail for a short navigation toward Tavolara and reaches Cala Saline, a quiet anchorage with clear water and a protected bay. There is usually time for a first swim before dinner on board and the first night at anchor.
Day 2
Tavolara, Molara, San Teodoro
After breakfast you continue toward Tavolara, followed by a stop at the natural pools of Molara for swimming in turquoise shallows. The cruise then heads south toward the coast of San Teodoro, passing beaches and a lagoon known for calm water and panoramic views. When conditions allow, the route may include Cape Coda Cavallo or a late afternoon stop near Porto Rotondo before anchoring for dinner and overnight on board.
Day 3
Caprera and La Maddalena
The day starts with a sail toward the islands of Caprera and La Maddalena. Depending on the weather, the captain selects one of several well protected coves such as Cala Garibaldi, Cala Napoletana or the beaches of Giardinelli. This area is perfect for swimming, snorkeling and exploring the coastline by tender. Lunch is served on board and the night is spent in a calm bay within the archipelago.
Day 4
La Maddalena, Spargi, Budelli, Razzoli
After breakfast the cruise continues to the famous Pink Beach area around Budelli and then toward Spargi, known for bright water and smooth granite formations. Later the route heads north toward Razzoli or the tiny island of Santa Maria, both ideal for swimming and photography. Weather may influence the exact choice of stops, but all remain within the central Maddalena group. Dinner and overnight on board.
Day 5
Razzoli to Bonifacio
A longer navigation brings you across the Bonifacio Strait toward Corsica. Upon arrival you anchor near Capo Pertusato for lunch, then continue into the natural harbor of Bonifacio. With time ashore you can visit the citadel, medieval alleys and the scenic cliffs overlooking the entrance to the fjord like harbor. Dinner and night on board near Bonifacio.
Day 6
Lavezzi or Cavallo, then Santa Teresa or Gulf of Aranci
If the mistral is mild, the captain heads to the islands of the Lavezzi or Cavallo for swimming and a relaxed morning at anchor. After lunch the route continues south toward Santa Teresa or, if conditions are more favourable, toward the Gulf of Aranci with views of Capo d’Orso. When the mistral is strong, the itinerary stays closer to the Sardinian coast. Dinner and night on board in a sheltered anchorage.
Day 7
Costa Smeralda to Olbia
The final day includes a last navigation along the Costa Smeralda, often with a stop near the islands of Soffi or Mortorio for swimming. The catamaran then returns to Olbia in the late afternoon, where guests spend the final night on board in marina. Disembarkation takes place the following morning after breakfast. The itinerary is indicative and may vary depending on weather, sea conditions and the captain’s decisions. Any change maintains the quality of the experience and may include alternative bays or a different order of visits.

Cruise activities and tips

Travel activities

Cruise activity Kayaking Between the Granite Formations of Lavezzi Islands

Kayaking Between the Granite Formations of Lavezzi Islands

Paddle your way through the wild, uninhabited beauty of the Lavezzi Islands, part of the Corsican Archipelago. This kayaking experience takes you through a maze of granite boulders shaped by centuries of wind and sea. Quiet inlets and shallow bays offer a calm environment to explore at your own pace, while submerged rock pools provide glimpses of marine life below. It’s a scenic, eco-friendly alternative to motor excursions, ideal for photography lovers and those seeking a peaceful connection with nature. Kayaks are usually available on board the catamaran, and this activity is perfect during your Lavezzi anchorage, especially on calm mornings or late afternoons.

Cruise activity Sea Cave Exploration at Capo Pertusato

Sea Cave Exploration at Capo Pertusato

Just south of Bonifacio, the towering limestone cliffs of Capo Pertusato conceal spectacular sea caves accessible only by small boat or kayak. Sail close to the cliffs to discover these natural formations, where centuries of wave action have sculpted passages, arches, and caverns in the white rock. The ever-changing play of light on the water and walls creates an almost otherworldly experience, ideal for quiet swimming, snorkeling, or cave photography. This hidden gem of southern Corsica offers a unique chance to explore a raw, untouched side of the coastline, far from crowded beaches or ports.

Cruise activity Visit to Tavolara Island and Its Marine Protected Area

Visit to Tavolara Island and Its Marine Protected Area

Tavolara Island rises dramatically from the Tyrrhenian Sea with its towering limestone cliffs and striking profile, an iconic sight in northeastern Sardinia. Drop anchor in one of the bays surrounding this protected marine area to enjoy swimming and paddleboarding in crystal-clear waters teeming with fish and sea grass. For those seeking a touch of adventure, short trails from the shoreline lead up to panoramic viewpoints overlooking the Gulf of Olbia and beyond. Whether you choose to relax onboard, snorkel near the rocks, or go ashore for a light hike, Tavolara offers one of the most scenic and peaceful stops of your catamaran cruise.

Travel organizer tips

What to pack for a sailing holiday?
Pack smart for your yacht charter: choose a soft bag instead of a hard suitcase, bring lightweight layers, reef-safe sunscreen, and non-slip shoes for onboard use. A couple of swimsuits and motion sickness remedies can also make a big difference. Each boat has limited storage, so pack light, but wisely! Need help building the perfect list? Read our full guide: What to pack in a suitcase for a yacht charter
What’s a Typical Day Like on a Yacht Charter?
Start your day with a swim in a quiet bay, sail to hidden beaches or seaside villages, and enjoy a slow lunch on deck. Afternoons mean snorkeling, sunbathing, or exploring ashore. As the sun sets, your boat anchors in a scenic cove or near a harbor, ready for a relaxed dinner and a night under the stars. Curious about the full experience? Discover more in our guide: What’s a typical day like on a sailing holiday?
Who Handles Cooking and Cleaning on a Yacht Charter?
On skipper-only charters, guests usually share cooking and cleaning duties, think salads, pasta, and good teamwork. If there's a hostess, light meals and tidying are included, but it's still a casual, collaborative vibe. On fully crewed yachts, you’ll enjoy full service with a chef and crew managing everything. Want to know what’s included in your setup? Read the full guide: Who takes care of cooking and cleaning on a sailing charter?
What Happens in Case of Bad Weather During a Sailing Holiday?
Summer sailing holidays rarely face major weather issues, but when the sea gets rough, skippers adjust the route for your safety. Expect protected bays, marina stops, or a change in plan. These moments often lead to unexpected gems: local towns to explore, time to relax on board, or cozy dinners ashore. Curious about how crews handle these changes?
