Details

With our boat trip, you can enjoy the beauty of the La Maddalena archipelago in just one day! You will relax, have fun and share unforgettable moments with the people you love, while the islands of Budelli, Santa Maria and Spargi provide a stunning background. Departing from Palau, we will first pick up the guests who will start their adventure from La Maddalena, and then navigate north. We will stop for one hour on the Island of Santa Maria, where you can dive into the water and take a refreshing swim. We will then continue on to the Island of Budelli for a 20-minute swim stop and pass in front of its famous pink beach, which is a protected area closed to the public. Kissed by the sun and caressed by the fresh wind, we will continue our trip down to the Island of Spargi where we will stop for an hour and a half. You will fall in love with the white sandy beaches and clear water, accompanied by the gentle song of the different types of birds that inhabit the island. Finally, we will return to La Maddalena, where the passengers who embarked in this port will have concluded their trip, while the others will have an hour to visit the historical center and the beautiful marina of this town, very famous because Garibaldi spent his exile here. In the end, we will take you back to Palau.

Highlights - Comfortable and spacious boat - Visits of the islands of Budelli, Santa Maria, Spargi, La Maddalena - Swimming stops throughout the day

We really enjoyed the excursion. Our guide, Claudia, was very friendly and helpful. She spoke four languages and was a great help in understanding the places we were visiting. The only downside was that they don't reserve seats between stops, so you have to keep moving coolers and bags around. There's a great food service on board, and we really enjoyed the excursion.
