What to Expect
Explore the beautiful Asinara Park with our RIB boat trip from Stintino, including swimming stops. The adventure begins with a departure from the port of Stintino, where you will board our comfortable RIB boat equipped with shaded areas and seating. This boat is perfect for exploring the stunning coastline and is ideal for families and groups of friends. Shortly after departure, we will head towards our first destination. If you choose the full-day option, the first stop will be at Cala d'Oliva, where we will take a 10-minute walk to reach the main branch of the prison. Here, we will have a guided tour included in the price, and then you will have free time to visit the old village.
Our first stop is an optional visit to the Crama Turtle Centre, where you can learn about the conservation efforts for these incredible creatures. Afterwards, we will make our way to Cala Reale for a refreshing swim and a chance to see the famous white donkeys that inhabit the area. This spot is not only perfect for a swim but also offers a picturesque view of the island's natural beauty.
Next, a brief navigation takes us to the natural pools, where we will pause for another swimming session. Continuing on, we will visit the cliffs of Capo Falcone and explore the bays in the area. On our way back, we will navigate through the Pelosa Channel, stopping for a final swim in front of Pelosa Beach, renowned for its crystal-clear waters. This tour is ideal for families and groups of friends who want to enjoy a mix of relaxation and exploration.

An unforgettable day on Asinara – an absolute must-do! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We spent a day on a dinghy exploring Asinara, departing from Stintino on August 18, 2026, and it was a truly fantastic experience that I highly recommend to anyone in the area.
The dinghy is simply gorgeous: perfectly maintained, spotlessly clean, and equipped with every comfort. One thing we particularly appreciated was the space on board: in our opinion, the dinghy could easily have accommodated more people, but there were only nine of us in total (our group of six plus another family of three), so we were very comfortable throughout the day, never feeling cramped or cramped.
A special mention goes to skipper Luca. Besides being very attentive and professional during the voyage, he proved to be a true "guide" to Asinara. He told us countless anecdotes and curiosities about the island, making the visit even more interesting and engaging.
Among the many things he showed us, he also showed us the guesthouse where, in August 1985, Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino worked in solitary confinement to prepare for the Maxi Trial against the Mafia bosses: a place of enormous historical value, which, seen and described in this way, takes on an even greater meaning.
Luca also recommended the most beautiful spots on the island to visit and the best coves to stop for a swim, demonstrating a truly in-depth knowledge of the area.
The visit to the Central Prison Administration, included in the tour, was also very beautiful: a stop that allowed us to learn another fundamental aspect of Asinara's history and which we found truly interesting.
All in all, it was a perfectly organized day, filled with wonderful sea, history, nature, and many curiosities, experienced in total comfort and with a guide, Luca, who knew how to make the tour even more special.
If you're in Stintino, don't hesitate: visiting Asinara by dinghy is an absolute must! It's one of those days you'll fondly remember once you've returned home. Highly recommended!

Amazing day out. Great skipper who spoke good English and was very knowledgeable about the island. The snorkeling and swimming stops were fantastic and the views of the island were great. I thoroughly recommend it, my 12 and 14 year old loved the speed of the rib too.
