    Day 3 - Porto Cervo – The Jewel of the Emerald Coast

    Take a short transfer to Cannigione, where you'll meet your crew and set sail into the iconic harbour of Porto Cervo, the crown jewel of Costa Smeralda. Nestled between stunning hills and crystal-clear waters, this enclave was crafted by visionary entrepreneurs to epitomize Mediterranean luxury. Discover a sophisticated village where peach, cream, and white stucco buildings with terracotta roofs create a breathtaking tableau. Here, designer boutiques like Gucci, Cartier, and Bulgari line the charming Piazzetta, undisturbed by traffic and alive with exclusive dining and nightlife. The renowned Costa Smeralda Yacht Club anchors the scene, offering elite regattas and unparalleled marina services amid spectacular surroundings. Sail into the protected, shimmering bays to anchor off pristine white-sand beaches for a private day of sun and sea.

    Day 4 - Porto Rotondo – Intimate Elegance and Artistic Heritage

    Porto Rotondo offers an equally luxurious yet more intimate ambiance, favoured by connoisseurs of privacy and culture. Meander through public squares paved with locally sourced granite and adorned with stunning sculptures by Andrea Cascella. The Church of St. Lorenzo, a true architectural masterpiece, houses an extraordinary collection of wooden sculptures. As the sun sets, choose from world-class watersports or explore miles of powdery white beaches. Enhance your journey with a private excursion to captivating archaeological sites such as the Li Muri Necropolis, blending history with Sardinia’s timeless beauty.

    Day 5 - Mortorio Island – Untamed Natural Splendor

    Escape to the uninhabited sanctuary of Mortorio Island, part of the Maddalena Archipelago National Park. Here, raw nature reigns supreme with seabirds performing aerial ballets against rugged cliffs and endless azure waters. Anchor in solitude, explore hidden coves, or ascend the hills for panoramic vistas that few have witnessed. Perfect your day with a gourmet picnic amid untouched landscapes, complemented by crystal-clear snorkelling along pristine beaches.

    Day 6 - Caprera Island – Mediterranean Wilderness Meets History

    Caprera is a sanctuary of natural beauty and history, largely untouched except for a discreet boutique resort at Garibaldi Bay. Experience world-class Mediterranean sailing along the Strait of Bonifacio’s invigorating winds. Explore tranquil beaches, hidden coves, and the revered Garibaldi Museum honouring Italy's legendary hero. For the adventurous, hike trails weaving through pine forests and along a remarkable dam offering the sensation of walking on water. Dive into exceptional underwater worlds where vibrant marine life and ancient Roman shipwrecks await discovery.

    Day 7 - Maddalena Island – Pristine Archipelago Splendor

    Sailing around Maddalena is an immersion into a pristine marine paradise marked by rugged islands and dazzling white sails. Discover enchanting coves ideal for snorkelling, diving, or simply basking in serenity. Stroll through Cala Gavetta’s quaint harbour town, with artisan boutiques and stylish cafés providing a charming counterpoint to the raw beauty of the landscape. Whether dining in intimate restaurants or enjoying cocktails aboard your yacht at sunset, every moment here exudes effortless sophistication.

    Day 8 - Cannigione – Serene Fjord-like Elegance

    Venture into the tranquil Gulf of Arzachena, where dramatic rocky hills frame the sea in a fjord-like embrace. Cannigione, your gateway to this calm retreat, is a quiet village that reflects an authentic Sardinian spirit. Relax on peaceful beaches or savour refined dining along the waterfront.

    Finally, wave goodbye to your skipper and crew and transfer to your hotel or airport for your onward journey.
