Detailed itinerary

First stop: Mortorio Island
A wild gem of the Maddalena Archipelago, completely uninhabited and known for its rugged cliffs and crystal-clear waters. The island is protected by strict regulations: you will admire it from the boat and enjoy a swim in some of the clearest waters of the area, always in full respect of the surrounding marine environment.

A majestic limestone mountain rising straight from the sea, and a symbol of the Tavolara – Punta Coda Cavallo Marine Protected Area. Here you’ll find Posidonia-rich seabeds, emerald reflections, and a landscape that is truly one of a kind. It’s an ideal place for lunch on board and a refreshing swim in deep, transparent waters.

The journey continues to the famous natural pools of Molara: shallow seabeds, turquoise water, and smooth granite rocks creating a paradise-like setting. Perfect for snorkeling, relaxing, and taking unforgettable photos.

The return to Poltu Quatu is planned for late afternoon, with the warm golden light illuminating the Costa Smeralda. If timing allows, we’ll cruise back with a spectacular sunset right in front of you.
