Sailing Boat Tour from San Teodoro: Discover the Hidden Coast of North-Eastern Sardinia
A full-day voyage along a coastline of granite, turquoise water, and wild beauty
This sailing boat tour from San Teodoro takes you along one of Sardinia's most scenic stretches of coastline, where granite cliffs meet crystalline coves that can only be reached by sea. Aboard the spacious Genesis 43 sailboat, you will spend a full day exploring marine reserves, hidden beaches, and the dramatic silhouette of Tavolara Island.
Departing from Cala Girgolu, the itinerary follows the north-eastern Sardinian coastline through a rotating selection of two to three stops chosen by the skipper based on daily conditions. Each anchorage reveals a distinct character, from the sheltered Piscine di Molara to the remote Spiaggia delle Vacche, offering time to swim, snorkel the seabed, or simply rest on the deck with the landscape around you.
Lunch on board brings local Sardinian products to the table, paired with regional wine, giving the day a genuine sense of place. The crew maintains a relaxed pace throughout, making this tour accessible to guests of all experience levels, including those who have never sailed before.
