Private RIB Boat Tour from Santa Teresa di Gallura: La Maddalena, Bonifacio and Beyond
A full day of private sailing along one of the Mediterranean's most spectacular coastlines, tailored entirely to your group.
This private RIB tour from Santa Teresa di Gallura places a 10-metre Scanner maxi dinghy and an experienced skipper entirely at your disposal for eight hours of exploration across the crystalline waters of northeastern Sardinia. The itinerary is customized to suit your preferences, meaning no fixed crowds and no compromises on the places you discover.
The region offers two major sailing directions, each with its own character. Heading south, guests can explore the La Maddalena Archipelago, a national park of granite islands, sheltered coves, and turquoise shallows that rival any destination in the Mediterranean. Heading north through the Straits of Bonifacio takes you into Corsican waters, where dramatic limestone cliffs and hidden anchorages await.
The vessel is a well-equipped RIB with a large bow sundeck, stern sundeck with climbing ladder, freshwater shower, bathroom, master bedroom, fridge, and stereo. Twin 300 HP Suzuki engines ensure reliable, comfortable cruising across open water and into sheltered bays with ease.

How the Day Unfolds
The day begins at the port of Santa Teresa di Gallura, where you board the Scanner maxi dinghy and meet your skipper. The crew will discuss destination preferences and plan the day's route based on conditions and your wishes.
Sailing south, you enter the waters of the La Maddalena National Park. The skipper navigates between islands to reach secluded beaches such as Cala Corsara on Spargi and the exclusive inlet of Cala Coticcio on Caprera, known for their vivid coloring and relative seclusion.
A swimming stop at the natural pools of Budelli offers calm, shallow water ideal for snorkeling and relaxing. The surrounding landscape of pink granite and Mediterranean scrub makes this one of the most photographed corners of Sardinia.
Alternatively, the skipper can take the boat north through the Straits of Bonifacio to reach Lavezzi Island and Piana Island in southeastern Corsica. A visit to the town of Bonifacio, with its cliff-top historic center, rounds out this route option.
After eight hours on the water, the boat returns to port. The exact return time is coordinated with the skipper based on the day's agreed itinerary and sea conditions.
