Private Dinghy Tour from Costa Rei: Coves, Cliffs and Crystal-Clear Waters
Sail the unspoiled coastline of Castiadas and discover hidden gems along one of Sardinia's most breathtaking shores.
This private dinghy tour from Costa Rei offers an intimate way to explore the dramatic south-eastern coastline of Sardinia, where granite cliffs, white-sand beaches and turquoise shallows come together in a landscape of rare natural beauty. Departing from the shores of Castiadas, you and your group will have the entire 8-metre inflatable boat to yourselves, guided by an experienced skipper who adapts the route to weather and sea conditions.
The tour covers a stretch of coast rich in geological character and marine life, passing formations such as Scoglio di Peppino and accessing sheltered coves that are largely unreachable by land. The skipper selects at least three to four swimming and snorkelling stops from a curated list of locations, ensuring each outing reflects the best conditions of the day.
The vessel is equipped with a freshwater shower, climbing ladder, awning for shade, safety equipment and a first-aid kit, making it a comfortable platform for a half-day on the water. The 250 hp Suzuki engine allows swift transfers between stops, leaving more time to swim, explore and enjoy the surroundings.
Whether you head north toward Cape Ferrato and Cala Sa Figu or south toward Cala Sinzias and Is Porceddus, you will encounter the calm, clear waters and Mediterranean scrub scenery that define this part of Sardinia.
