As we head out into the turquoise waters, we’ll cruise by the iconic Bear Rock (Roccia dell’Orso), a natural granite formation sculpted by wind and sea into the shape of a bear. A perfect introduction to the unspoiled beauty of northern Sardinia.
Stop 3
Heading south, we will sail past some of the area’s most iconic spots, such as Baia Sardinia, known for its crystal-clear waters, and Poltu Quatu, an elegant fjord nestled among the rocks. This stretch of coast offers exclusive viewpoints, ideal for memorable photos.
Stop 4
Our first stop will be at Grande Pevero beach, one of the jewels of the Costa Smeralda: a long stretch of fine white sand, surrounded by green hills and washed by incredibly clear waters. A perfect spot for your first swim – you can snorkel to discover the seabed or simply relax in this postcard-perfect setting.

We will then head to Baia del Principe, a small, peaceful paradise with emerald-hued waters and untouched nature, offering a scene of rare beauty.

On the way to our next stop, we’ll pass the iconic Cala di Volpe, famous for its luxury hotel and stunning sea views. This bay has been featured in films and is a symbol of Costa Smeralda elegance.
Stop 7
Enjoy one last stop for swimming and sunbathing at Liscia Ruja, also known as "Long Beach" for its vast sandy shore and calm, shallow waters. It's a true paradise for sea lovers. Take the opportunity for one last swim or unwind in the tranquillity of Gallura’s natural landscape.
