Highlights
  • Isola di Spargi - Spargi is the third largest island in the La Maddalena archipelago. It has an almost circular shape, covering an area of just over 4 km² with 11 km of coastline featuring stunning beaches in the south and east. The north-western part is marked by rugged cliffs. The highest point, Guardia Preposti, reaches 153 meters in altitude. Spargi is of granite origin, mountainous, with a vast central plateau. It showcases beautiful landscapes and rich biodiversity. Spargi is a haven for rare bird species like the Corsican cormorant and seagull, which nest in the high cliffs of the nearby Spargiotto island. All other species are protected, except for the royal seagull.
  • Porto della Madonna - This stunning body of water features shallow, crystal-clear waters with shades ranging from nearly transparent blue to emerald green, with some dark blue areas due to oceanic posidonia. This plant oxygenates the sea and provides shelter to thousands of marine microorganisms, crucial for the Mediterranean ecosystem.

Porto della Madonna faces the Spiaggia del Cavaliere di Budelli. In the center is Isola Carpa. To the east of Carpa Island is the narrow Passo del Topo, with numerous granite rocks emerging from the water like small sculptures.

  • Spiaggia Rosa - We will get as close as possible to the Pink Beach so you can admire it fully and take some memorable photos.
  • Roccia dell’Orso - During our navigation, we will see one of Sardinia’s most fascinating natural monuments, the famous Bear Rock (a natural monument since 1993). According to Greek civilization scholar Victor Berard, the promontory of Capo d’Orso is the only place in the Mediterranean identifiable with the “Land of Lestrigoni,” the cannibal giants from the tenth book of the Odyssey. It is believed that Odysseus landed at Cape Bear in search of food, but the giant cannibals inflicted heavy losses on him, forcing him to flee.
  • Porto Rafael - Continuing our excursion, we will come across Porto Rafael, a small and exclusive village surrounded by rocks and pristine beaches. It was established in the early sixties by Count Rafael Neville.
What's Included
  • Lunch
  • Fresh water shower service
  • On-board restrooms

WE WILL RETURN WITHOUT HESITATION! 😍 - Highly recommended experience, very friendly. We had a great time, we visited several islands and they explained everything to us. I would recommend it 100% if you come to visit Sardinia. Also very good appetizers. An unforgettable experience!!! ✨❤️ The fact that it was a little cold was not an impediment to having a great time, without a doubt we will repeat in summer to be able to swim and enjoy all the islands visited and the beautiful blue sea. It's worth 10/10!

Best beach experience ever! - I took part in the trip with my partner at the beginning of September, what can I say, the places visited are all wonderful, in my opinion it is difficult to find actually more beautiful stretches of sea and coast (in Italy certainly and certainly among the best in the world) and, speaking of the staff and crew, you get to the true strength of this experience. Personally I traveled with Nicolò and Marco, a truly explosive pairing, you can sense from the first moment the professionalism "in matters of the sea" (the same is certainly true for the other members of Zefiro) of those guys who also spend themselves in cradling the passenger in a way that in all honesty I have never seen anywhere else. From the chats exchanged in a friendly way with each customer (who really feels like they are in a relaxed and fun place, characterized by an always light, lively and exciting atmosphere, thanks to the crew) up to the lunches, snacks, aperitifs etc. which are all prepared to perfection (here too, compliments to the member of the couple who from time to time, at lunch time, goes below deck and turns into chef to prepare a memorable meal). A bomb!!!!!!

Fabulous - Fantastic experience, in the La Maddalena Archipelago, taken care of in detail by the skippers Nicolò and Marco, a young and friendly crew, attentive to our every need, providing everything from the coffee and welcome cake, to the aperitif, to lunch, to the fruit stop, all enriched with prosecco, wine and drinks at will. Nicolò makes customers participate by explaining everything they encounter during navigation, every move and stop. The presence of 12 people on board made the day on the catamaran relaxing and at the same time exciting. Super recommended.

Great day on a luxury catamaran - Wonderful day on a luxury catamaran. Breakfast, aperitif, food and drinks well served and of quality. The catamaran is large and you are not cramped at all. It feels like the boat is yours. The captain and his assistant do a magnificent job.

The trip was canceled due to rain, one day it was brilliantly sunny... - The trip was canceled due to rain, on a day when there was no rain forecast and the sun was shining. We were offered another day, but as this was added to the end of the holiday (due to the weather forecast) we did not get the opportunity. Poor communication with operator.
