This experience, in a nutshell

Get ready to experience a unique adventure between crystal clear sea, unspoiled nature and authentic traditions. Boarding is in Porto Torres and disembarkation in Alghero, easily reachable by ferry or plane, aboard a brand new and comfortable Bavaria 46 Cruiser: The boat is 14 meters long with 4 cabins, 4 bathrooms and all the equipment for a comfortable and relaxing cruise.

First stop: the Asinara Natural Park.

A magical island preserved as it was 150 years ago with its own ecosystem, kept away from unbridled tourism. An intact natural environment that cannot be found elsewhere and a spectacular sea. In this park, unique in its kind, anchoring and free navigation by motor are forbidden and only the approach to buoys or piers by reservation is allowed, favoring sailing tourism. On land we will experience the feeling of returning to the past, we will visit exclusive places with the services of the park linked to ecological and sustainable tourism, in harmony with the environment.

Stintino and Castelsardo: stages between history and beauty.

We will continue towards the transparent waters of Stintino, an ancient fishing village, and the enchanting Isola Piana, perfect for a regenerating stop. The journey continues to the charming fortified city of Castelsardo, with its maritime charm linked to the Genoese tradition and the endless panorama of the Gulf of Asinara.

Our itinerary ends in Alghero, a lively and beautiful town, which combines Sardinian and Catalan culture, famous for its corals and lobster fishing. We'll stroll through its streets steeped in history, with a Mediterranean charm.

A holiday for everyone.

Whether you simply want to relax lulled by the sea or take advantage of the presence of an FIV skipper and instructor to learn the basics of offshore sailing, this holiday is designed to offer you an unforgettable experience. The itinerary will be adapted to the expectations of the crew and the weather conditions, with the aim of making you experience the most authentic Sardinia, away from the most beaten track, exploring white sand bays accessible only by sea and sailing on an emerald sea.

A journey between nature and authenticity.

North-west Sardinia is waiting for you to discover an alternative paradise, which few manage to reach.

The experience overall was good! It would have been appreciated, though, if I had been informed somewhat in advance that I was the only one who wasn’t Italian, and with the change of skipper, nobody involved with the boat spoke a word of English. Only the “guests” did, which was of course great as they kindly translated things for me, but it still made the situation uncomfortable. Since everyone naturally spoke the same language, all conversations were in Italian - which I understand but unless I asked for a translation, I didn’t really know what was happening and I was naturally excluded from conversations which wasn’t the best feeling. It also felt a bit strange to be regulated on when we were allowed to use the bathroom or take a shower (mostly never). As a first-timer on a boat, I was also a little shocked that, due to the bad weather, we almost had to pay an extra €500 on top of the original fees just to stay in the harbour and for food. I understand the food part, but a heads-up beforehand would have been really helpful, especially that in case of bad weather, nothing is included in the price and everything extra has to be paid separately on top. That being said, everyone was very kind and there were no issues otherwise.

Although the weather was not the best, the experience was overall positive between the excellent company we were lucky enough to find and the evocative places visited. Our skipper Manuel stood out for his friendliness, patience and attention to everyone's needs, We had a lot of fun!

The cruise with Federico was spectacular! He welcomed us with great availability and made us feel at ease from the first moment. We sailed a lot, as soon as possible sailing with only the sound of the wind. We always felt calm and safe thanks to the skipper's great experience and his constant attention to every detail. His knowledge of the places allowed us to explore beautiful places. To this must be added that he cooks very well! If you are lucky enough to have Emanuele, his son, on the boat, the company will be enriched by a young boy full of intelligence and positive energy! We got off the boat reluctantly and we can't wait to be able to do more miles on the beautiful [hidden]!
