From Orosei: Dinghy Tour Between Cala Ginepro and Cala Goloritzè
A full day of discovery along Sardinia's most legendary coastline, from hidden coves to world-famous beaches.
This Gulf of Orosei dinghy tour takes you along one of the most celebrated stretches of coastline in the Mediterranean, visiting sea caves, emerald bays, and white-pebble beaches accessible only by boat.
Departing from Cala Ginepro in Orosei, the tour covers a remarkable sequence of stops including Cala Luna, Cala Mariolu, Cala Sisine, and Cala Goloritzè. Each location offers distinct character, from the cave-framed shoreline of Cala Luna to the internationally recognised beauty of Cala Mariolu.

A one-hour stop at Cala Luna allows time to explore the beach, walk to the natural caves at the water's edge, and swim in the sheltered bay.
