Catamaran Sailing Tour in Porto Conte Park from Alghero
Sail the rugged coastline of northwest Sardinia and discover Capo Caccia by catamaran
This catamaran tour in Porto Conte Park takes you along one of Sardinia's most scenic protected coastlines, from the Marina di Porto Conte toward the dramatic limestone cliffs of Capo Caccia, offering a genuine encounter with the island's wild and beautiful natural heritage.
Departing from the sheltered bay of Porto Conte in northwest Sardinia, the route follows a coastline shaped by centuries of Mediterranean wind and sea. The dense maquis scrubland tumbles down to the water's edge, filling the air with the scent of rosemary, cistus, and wild herbs that define this part of the island.
The journey leads to Cala Dragunara, a secluded cove tucked beneath the towering cliffs of Capo Caccia, where guests have time to swim and float in clear, calm water. The stop is genuinely unhurried, leaving room for relaxation rather than a rushed turnaround.
Before returning to the marina, the crew serves a traditional Sardinian aperitif on deck, including a board of local sausage and aged pecorino cheese alongside a chilled glass of white wine. It is a fitting close to a half-day spent on the water in one of Italy's most celebrated marine parks.
