Overview

La Maddalena Arcipelago in Sardinia is one of the world's best kept secrets. Daily boat tours with Navetta Sea Star, will take you around the fantastic islands of La Maddalena, a national park. We visit the entire archipelago, stopping at white sandy beaches and having swimming stops in crystal clear waters along the way. The archipelago is surrounded by stunning nature and history, not to mention breath-taking beaches and emerald waters, which all makes for an unforgettable experience for families, couples and groups. Choose itinerary 1 to include a stop at the charming mother island of La Maddalena, and visit the town centre with its quaint boutiques and try some superb Italian ice creams, or choose Itinerary 2 instead, for the final stop at the world famous Cala Coticcio at Caprera for a swim in the natural aquarium of Tahiti. Whichever itinerary you choose, you are guaranteed the best day out that Sardinia has to offer.
