Sardinia

Sardinia is the second largest island in the Mediterranean.

Its territory coincides with the Sardinian Archipelago, consisting of the Isla of Sardinia and a considerable number of small island and surrounding archipelagos.

Well-known in antiquity, both by Phoenicians and the Greeks, it was called Ichnussa by the latter for the similarity of its coastal conformation to a footprint.

Its strategical position and wealth of minerals favoured its settlement and development of trade and cultural exchanges. Inhabited since the Paleolithic period, it possesses a priceless historical and architectural treasure, starting with the famous “Nuraghi”.

Our navigation area includes also the National Park of “La Maddalena Archipelago” made up of 62 islands and islets, characterized by the presence of one third of Sardinian flora, including some rare species strongly conditioned by the wind, sunshine and aridity factors, as well as by the distance from the mainland.

With its 180km of coastline, the Archipelago offers most of the famous and evocative beaches in the Mediterranean, such as Spiaggia Rosa, Spiaggia del Cavaliere on the island of Budelli, spiaggia di Cala Coticciu, Cala Napoletana, spiaggia del relitto at Caprera.

On the island of La Maddalena, Bassa Trinita, with its white sand dunes and the cliff of Punta Tegge.

Inlets and coves forming a myriad of highly suggestive natural harbours, offer not only an peerless panorama, but also protection to sailors in different sea conditions.

To access the Maddalena Park, a special authorization is necessary (ticket that can be purchased online) that entitles you to sail, moor, anchor and stop within 300 metres from the coast.
