Private Sunset Boat Tour of the La Maddalena Archipelago from Palau or La Maddalena
A golden-hour sailing experience aboard a vintage wooden boat among the most celebrated coves of northern Sardinia.
This La Maddalena Archipelago sunset tour offers an intimate, private sailing experience along one of the most protected and scenic coastlines in the Mediterranean, departing from either Palau or La Maddalena depending on your holiday base.
The tour runs for four hours aboard the Stella di Mare, a 12-metre vintage-style wooden boat with capacity for up to twelve guests. With a shaded area, sunbathing deck, hot water shower, and two cabins, the vessel provides a comfortable setting for the entire outing.
An expert skipper selects the day's destination based on wind and sea conditions, navigating toward one of three iconic coves in the archipelago: Spargi, Budelli, or Razzoli. Each location offers calm, sheltered waters ideal for swimming as the light shifts toward dusk.
On board, staff prepare a carefully curated dinner or aperitif to complement the scenery. The combination of the boat's character, the quality of the food, and the spectacle of the sunset over the Tyrrhenian Sea makes this a distinctive and memorable experience for any traveller visiting the region.

Itinerary
Guests board the Stella di Mare at their chosen departure port. The skipper briefs the group on the planned route for the evening, which is adjusted according to current wind and sea conditions.
The boat sets off into the La Maddalena Archipelago, navigating past the protected islands and islets of this national park. The journey itself offers views of rugged coastline, clear turquoise water, and undisturbed natural scenery.
The skipper anchors at a selected cove — typically Spargi, Budelli, or Razzoli — where guests can swim or snorkel in calm, sheltered waters. The boarding ladder and hot water shower make re-boarding straightforward and comfortable.
As the sun descends toward the horizon, staff serve a prepared meal or aperitif on deck. Guests can relax on the sunbathing area or take a shaded seat while enjoying both the food and the panoramic light display across the sea.
The boat makes its way back to the departure port as dusk settles. The total duration from boarding to disembarkation is approximately four hours.
