What you can expect
Set off on this special excursion from the Olbia marina to discover the natural wonders hidden along the Golfo Aranci coastline!
On board a comfortable rubber dinghy, we will sail to Figarolo Island, where you will be able to snorkel and admire the evocative seabed with mask and snorkel. Immediately afterwards we will head to Cape Figari, an impressive limestone cliff overlooking the sea, or to Cape Ceraso with its enchanting inlets. Depending on the wind conditions, we will choose the best spots to stop for a regenerating dive and a small snack on board.
During this spectacular tour there will also be the possibility of spotting dolphins passing through these waters, attracted by the fish farming in this area. On the luckiest occasions these beautiful animals come close and you might see them swimming alongside the boat or observe them from a distance, without disturbing their daily activities. An experienced guide trained in marine biology will enrich the observation with many insights and curiosities about these rare sightings.
A tour full of emotions and surprises, under the banner of natural beauty: perfect for those who wish to enrich their trip to Sardinia while respecting its wild nature!
