This experience, in a nutshell

The splendid archipelago of La Maddalena is an ideal place to spend your holidays on a sailing boat. Breathtaking landscapes, enchanting beaches, a multicolored crystalline sea from light blue to intense blue and emerald green. The wind, always present, mitigates the summer heat and makes the area a paradise for all sailors . Setting sail from the tourist port of Cala Gavetta, in La Maddalena, you can quickly reach the countless beaches and coves which, depending on the wind direction, offer safe shelters to spend the evening at anchor admiring the most beautiful sunsets: Cala Coticcio, Cala Serena, Cala Napoletana to name a few. Continue to the island of Spargi, then the island of Budelli, with the suggestive Pink Beach. You can then explore the stars in the enchanting Manto della Madonna between Santa Maria and Razzoli. Sailing in a few hours you reach the south of Corsica with the islands of Cavallo and the beautiful bay of Lavezzi where dolphins go to sleep.

MAXIMUM PROGRAM:
Saturday: Boarding in the afternoon and assignment of the cabins, galley in a supermarket that delivers directly to the pier. Dinner in a restaurant-pizzeria on the harbor.
Sunday: after breakfast we set sail to reach the island of Spargi for a first swim in Cala Corsara before the boats full of tourists arrive. A tour of the islands to do some sailing and a swim in an uncrowded bay to then arrive in the afternoon at the Cavaliere bay between Santa Maria and Budelli where you can still spend the night. Before sunset, go down with the tender for a visit to the Rosa beach and reach the belvedere from where you can contemplate the whole archipelago. For dinner we can ask Mauro, the keeper of the island of Budelli for hospitality: we will bring the galley with us and thus we will have the opportunity to spend a beautiful evening contemplating the stars from the Rosa beach.
Monday: In the morning, after a swim in the Cavaliere beach, we set sail for a short navigation to the island of Lavezzi in Corsica where we will moor in the afternoon in Cala Lazzarina to spend the night. We will find ourselves inside one of the most beautiful bays waiting for the sunset for an aperitif with the astonishing scenery of the sun setting behind Bonifacio and its white cliffs.
Tuesday: After a last swim, we set sail to sail inside the Strait of Bonifacio, Mistral permitting. We will pass in front of Capo Pertusato and its cliffs. In the afternoon we will enter the fjord to reach the busy port of Bonifacio. We will go up to the village where we will be able to dine in a characteristic restaurant and walk along the narrow streets of Bonifacio.
Wednesday: return to the Archipelago of La Maddalena hoping for the wind in the stern for a peaceful sailing perhaps with the spinnaker. We reach Caprera, Cala Serena, Cala Napoletana and in the late afternoon Cala Coticcio or Tahiti, as the locals call it, where we will spend the night at anchor. Any bay will be good for a swim and to relax in the sun.
Thursday: Day dedicated to navigation and swimming in the bays between Caprera, Santo Stefano and Maddalena. In the evening we reach the bay in front of Porto Rafael where we can go down with the tender to visit the square and have an aperitif.
Friday: Last day strolling around the Archipelago. You go where you want. We sail, swim, enjoy the sea and the beautiful landscapes. To end with a flourish evening at the disco. Moor in the harbor in front of Phi Beach, the most fashionable place on the Costa Smeralda for an aperitif waiting for the sunset and then partying.
Saturday: after the night in the disco we leave early to return to La Maddalena where unfortunately the holiday ends.
