Sailing in Sardinia

Sailing in Sardinia is a wonderful experience thanks to the crystal clear water and the unique coves of this island. The north of Sardinia is a real paradise, for its nature and vegetation, but also for the tradition and culture. There are many different ports where you can hire a sailing-boat or you can book some excursions to the most beautiful beaches.

We recommend you to sail to the National Park of La Maddalena, where you can enjoy some of the popular beaches, like Spiaggia Rosa (whose color of the sand is given by the shells of a particular single-celled organism), the Spiaggia del Cavaliere in the island of Budelli or the beaches of Cala Coticcio. The National Park of La Maddalena is also very important from a cultural and historical point of view as there is the house where Giuseppe Garibaldi spent the last time of his life and which today is a museum of memories and history of one of the greatest Italian personalities of the eighteenth century.

The east-coast is the most popular coast for sailers because the sea is more protected from the mountains. The area around Olbia, Costa Smeralda is known as hotspot for all who are interested in sailing. At the port of Porto Cervo you can spot some of the most expensive yachts in the world. In the whole east-coast area are also small ports where you can anchor and enjoy the small villages at the coast and eat some typical Sardinian food. But exploring the northwest-coast of the island with its stunning red rocks, is a great experience as well, for example do not miss Costa Paradiso. The rocky coast offers unique coves and rocks formed by the water and the wind over years and years.

The most suitable villas for rent for Sailing in Sardinia are Villa Il Mosaico di Nora: Villa just 100 meters from the beach, and Villa Carezza di Mare, with private pool.

But of course we recommend you, if you have time, to sail around the whole island, there are so many nice points to stop and explore. Exploring Nuraghes and landing on unspoiled beaches and coves will make your journey an unforgettable holiday.
