Sunset Aperitif Sailing Tour from Stintino in front of La Pelosa

Glide across the Gulf of Asinara as the sky turns golden and Sardinian flavors unfold on deck.


This private sunset sailing tour from Stintino combines the natural splendor of La Pelosa beach with the relaxed pleasure of an on-board aperitif as the sun descends over the Gulf of Asinara. Departing from the historic pier of Stintino, the experience is designed for those who want the beauty of Sardinia's northwestern coast without the crowds. The private format means the boat, the moment, and the scenery belong entirely to your group.

La Pelosa is widely regarded as one of the finest stretches of coastline in the Mediterranean, and approaching it by sailboat offers a perspective that few visitors ever encounter. The tower of La Pelosa stands against the horizon while the shallow, crystalline water below shifts between turquoise and deep blue. A stop for swimming allows guests to cool off before the evening light begins its transformation.

The route also includes a pass by the Piscine Naturali, a series of natural rock pools carved by the sea along the coastline. The raw, undeveloped landscape of this area offers a striking contrast to the more visited shores nearby. As the boat turns back toward Stintino, the aperitif service begins and the colors of the sunset fill the sky over the gulf.

Tour Highlights

Sail to La Pelosa, one of Sardinia's most celebrated beaches, and swim in warm, clear Mediterranean waters.

Watch the sunset paint the Gulf of Asinara in vivid shades of orange and pink from the deck of a private sailboat.

Enjoy a curated on-board aperitif featuring Sardinian cold cuts, cheeses, bruschetta, salmon, and Akenta white wine.

Discover the Piscine Naturali, dramatic natural rock pools set against an untouched stretch of coastline.

Travel as a private group, ensuring an exclusive and unhurried experience on the water.

Admire the historic tower of La Pelosa, a 16th-century Aragonese watchtower rising above the beach.
