About the experience

Starting from the Arbatax Tourist Port, this excursion by dinghy will take you to discover some of the most evocative stretches of the Gulf of Orosei, condensed into half a day full of emotions. On board the Joker Boat Clubman 24, guided by an expert skipper, you will sail along a wild and authentic coast, where every curve reveals a new breathtaking view.

After circumnavigating the Isolotto d'Ogliastra, the route continues towards the vertical stacks of Pedralonga and the imposing Capo Monte Santo, where the landscape becomes more rugged and spectacular. Along the way you will approach sea caves and small secluded bays, such as the Grotta dei Colombi, Portu Petrosu and Portu Cuau: silent corners, perfect for a swim in transparent waters.

The navigation then continues towards the icons of the gulf: Cala Goloritzé, with its natural arch, and Cala Mariolu, where the seabed transforms into a real natural swimming pool. We continue towards the enchanting Piscine di Venere, with turquoise waters fed by freshwater springs and clear limestone rock seabeds. Until the last stop, Cala Biriala welcomes us with its white pebble beach, nestled between high cliffs and clear waters: a remote corner perfect for a dip and snorkeling.

During the navigation you can relax listening to music, enjoy a small aperitif and refresh yourself with the drinks available on board. A short but intense experience, ideal for discovering the best of Ogliastra in a few hours, with the right timing and without rushing.
