North-East Sardinia · Costa Smeralda
The complete guide to a private day at sea in north-east Sardinia — and the easy way to book one. La Maddalena, the Costa Smeralda and Tavolara, on a private yacht with skipper.
Where to go by boat
North-east Sardinia has the most spectacular coastline in the Mediterranean: the protected La Maddalena archipelago, the glamorous Costa Smeralda and the wild Tavolara reserve, all within an easy day's cruise of Porto Rotondo. A private day charter is the best way to see it — the whole boat for your group, an expert skipper and the freedom to choose where to swim and where to have lunch.
Use this guide to pick your route and book the right experience. Whether you want the turquoise coves of La Maddalena, the style of Porto Cervo or a relaxed family day, we'll tailor it to the weather and to you.
