Olbia Sunset Catamaran Tour along the Gallura Coast

Sail into the golden hour with Sardinian aperitif and views of Tavolara Island.


The Olbia sunset catamaran tour offers a three-hour sailing experience departing from the port of Olbia, guiding guests along the north-eastern Sardinian coastline toward the tranquil waters in front of Pittulongu beach. As daylight fades, the silhouette of Tavolara Island rises dramatically on the horizon, creating one of the most striking seascapes in the Mediterranean.

On board the Pajot Madives 32 catamaran, guests settle into a wide, stable vessel with ample sunbathing nets and a freshwater shower, designed for both comfort and open-sea leisure. The small group format keeps the atmosphere relaxed and personal throughout the excursion.

The on-board aperitif brings a genuine taste of Gallura to the experience, featuring a selection of local cured meats and aged cheeses paired with a glass of Sardinian red or white wine, or a cold beer. Soft drinks and water are also available, making the stop in front of Pittulongu beach a moment of quiet enjoyment on the water.

This excursion is well suited to couples, families, and small groups seeking a low-effort, high-reward encounter with the Sardinian coast at its most photogenic hour. No sailing experience is required, and the itinerary is straightforward enough for guests of varying mobility levels.
