Itinerary

Day 1
OLBIA / CALA SPALMATORE TAVOLARA (Navigation time: 1:30H)
Immerse yourself in the pristine beauty of northern Sardinia as you depart from Olbia Marina. After settling into your cabin and completing the welcome briefing, set sail for Cala Spalmatore, just 10 nautical miles away. This scenic bay offers crystal-clear turquoise waters perfect for your first evening swim. Depending on the conditions, La Saline Bay provides a serene alternative with equally stunning surroundings. Relax onboard with a sunset aperitivo, enjoying the quiet rhythm of your first night at sea. This anchorage is ideal for a soft start, surrounded by nature and the silhouette of Tavolara Island.
Day 2
TAVOLARA / MOLARA / S. TEODORO / IRA BAY (Navigation time: 4H)
Begin your day with breakfast under the rising sun, followed by a short sail to the island of Tavolara. Step ashore to explore this dramatic limestone island or enjoy a swim directly from the catamaran. Continue your journey to Molara’s legendary natural pools—shallow, transparent waters ideal for snorkeling and photos. After a relaxed lunch onboard near Capo Coda Cavallo, a headland with panoramic views, head toward La Cinta beach in San Teodoro. This long golden beach is flanked by a tranquil lagoon, home to pink flamingos. In the late afternoon, arrive in Ira Bay near Porto Rotondo. A quick dinghy ride takes you to town, where boutique shops, waterfront bars, and the lively vibe of the Costa Smeralda await.
Day 3
IRA BAY / CAPRERA / LA MADDALENA (Navigation time: 4:30H)
Today you sail deeper into the La Maddalena Archipelago, starting with Caprera. Drop anchor in Cala Coticcio, known as "Tahiti" for its white sand and Caribbean-like waters. Spend the morning swimming or paddleboarding in this protected cove. After lunch onboard, explore more of Caprera’s hidden bays such as Cala Napoletana, Passo della Moneta or Cala Garibaldi. In the late afternoon, dock at Cala Mangiavolpe in La Maddalena town. Stroll the lively harbor promenade, enjoy dinner at a seaside trattoria, and soak in the charming island atmosphere.
Day 4
LA MADDALENA / SPARGI / RAZZOLI / BUDELLI (Navigation time: 2:30H)
After a morning walk through the streets of La Maddalena, cast off for the island of Spargi. Depending on the wind, anchor in Cala Corsara or Cala dell’Amore, both known for their dramatic rock formations and clear waters. In the afternoon, cruise toward Budelli Island to admire the iconic Spiaggia Rosa (Pink Beach), where coral fragments tint the sand a delicate pink hue. Continue sailing among nearby islets like Razzoli and Santa Maria, anchoring for the night in one of the area’s quiet coves. This day offers a full immersion into the protected nature of the archipelago.
Day 5
RAZZOLI / BONIFACIO (Navigation time: 2:30 H)
Depart Razzoli and sail across the Bonifacio Strait into French waters. Pause beneath the dramatic white cliffs of Capo Pertusato for lunch, where the sea meets the rocks in a striking contrast of color. Arrive in Bonifacio during the afternoon and prepare to be amazed: entering the narrow fjord-like harbor is an unforgettable experience. Moor in the historic marina and take a stroll through the fortified old town perched high on the cliffs. Climb the King of Aragon Steps and enjoy panoramic views of the strait. This day offers history, architecture, and dramatic landscapes.
Day 6
BONIFACIO / LAVEZZI / PEVERO OR P.TO VECCHIO (Navigation time: 5H)
Depending on weather, the route leads to the Lavezzi archipelago—a marine sanctuary of granite islands with secluded bays and excellent snorkeling. Alternatively, anchor off Cavallo or Isola Piana for a peaceful morning surrounded by nature. After lunch, sail back across the strait into Sardinia. Anchor in Golfo Pevero near Porto Cervo or opt for the Corsican southeast alternative with Rondinara or Porto Vecchio. Both options offer vibrant evening scenes: boutiques, fine dining, or simple strolls in scenic marinas. The day blends relaxation with the flexibility to follow the best conditions.
Day 7
PEVERO OR P.TO VECCHIO / ROMAZZINO / G. ARANCI / OLBIA (Navigation time: 4-5 H)
Your final day includes some of the most photogenic beaches in Costa Smeralda. Visit Liscia di Vacca, Romazzino Beach, or Prince Beach—loved for their white sands, granite outcrops, and calm turquoise waters. Swim, relax, or enjoy lunch onboard surrounded by the iconic landscape. Continue south toward Cala di Volpe or Liscia Ruja for more idyllic views. A last swim stop in Cala Moresca, near Golfo Aranci, offers time to reflect on the journey. Return to Olbia in the late afternoon and enjoy your final night onboard.

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?
