Lavezzi & the crossing south
Let conditions shape two days among sculpted islands, transparent coves and the open strait before entering Sardinian waters.
La Maddalena, island by island
Move slowly through the archipelago, balancing secluded swimming, unhurried lunches aboard and an elegant evening ashore.
Costa Smeralda, beyond the familiar
Follow the granite coast towards Porto Cervo, choosing discreet bays, exceptional tables and one final anchorage away from the busiest harbour.

Private transfer to Olbia for onward travel, or continue into a villa stay in the island's quieter interior.
