RIB Tour in the Gulf of Asinara from Stintino
Discover hidden coves, turquoise waters, and wild coastlines aboard a rigid inflatable boat departing from Stintino.
This RIB tour in the Gulf of Asinara invites you to explore one of the most pristine stretches of coastline in the Mediterranean, gliding past secluded beaches, natural swimming pools, and dramatic rock formations in northwest Sardinia.
Departing from the port of Stintino, the excursion runs for approximately three hours and covers a carefully selected route around Isola Piana, Capo Falcone, and the surrounding waters of the Asinara National Park area. The skipper adjusts the itinerary based on wind and sea conditions to ensure the best possible experience.
Guests travel aboard the Wild Asinara, an eight-metre rigid inflatable boat equipped with an awning and a boarding ladder. The vessel is well-suited for navigating shallow coves and rocky inlets that larger boats cannot reach.
The route typically includes two to three stops for swimming, allowing you to cool off in clear, calm water and take in the surrounding landscape at your own pace. The difficulty level is rated easy, making this tour accessible to most travellers regardless of nautical experience.
Tour Highlights
Swim in the natural swimming pools of Fornelli, a sheltered inlet with exceptionally clear water near the coast of Asinara.
Pass in front of La Pelosa beach, widely regarded as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, framed by its historic coastal tower.
Navigate around Capo Falcone and explore the coves of Isola Piana and Mare di Fuori along a route shaped by the conditions of the day.
Travel on a certified eight-metre RIB equipped with an awning for shade and a ladder for easy water entry and exit.

Itinerary Overview
Board the Wild Asinara at the port of Stintino and receive a brief safety and route orientation from the skipper. The boat sets off toward the waters surrounding Capo Falcone and Isola Piana.
The first segment of the tour takes you along the coastline of Isola Piana and the Mare di Fuori area, where the water shifts between shades of turquoise and deep blue. The skipper identifies the best spots for photography and swimming based on current conditions.
The tour includes at least two or three stops chosen from locations such as Cala Grande, Scanna Capretti, Roccia Forata, the natural swimming pools of Fornelli, and Porri Island. Each stop allows time for swimming and taking in the surroundings.
The route passes in front of La Pelosa, offering a clear view of its shallow, pale-blue waters and the medieval watchtower that stands on a small islet just offshore. This is one of the most photographed coastal scenes in Sardinia.
The boat makes its way back to the port of Stintino, completing the three-hour excursion. The skipper may adjust the return route depending on sea conditions encountered during the tour.
