Itinerary

If you’re thinking “maybe I really should go to Sardinia” then good, you can’t miss out on this opportunity! An 8 days tour in paradise, to explore the Maddalena archipelago and its incredible landscapes, Rena Majore and Del Principe beach where not doing snorkeling is basically a crime, Caprera and the exotic Cala Coticcio, kayaking in Casteldoria and going to Porto Cervo where we’ll stop at Liscia Ruja, the biggest beach on the Costa Smeralda. Just enough time to fall in love with Sardinia!

Welcome to Sardinia!

Round trip flights are not included in the package, so you can choose from where and when you want to fly. This is to give you maximum freedom of choice!

We’ll meet up in Olbia where we’ll pick up our rental cars. We’ll take just the time to get comfortable and then we’ll start exploring the area. Tonight we’ll start off right with a seafood dinner, fresh from the catch of the day! We’ll then move towards the beach where there are always parties and live music. Let’s toast the start of this trip and enjoy the night!

Caribbean vibes

Del Principe Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Smeralda even though, to be fair, it’s not easy to rank them!

This beach is a thin strip of fine white sand overlooking a bay with crystal-clear water that has just the right Caribbean vibe. As we arrive, we find a cozy spot in this corner of paradise and waste no more time—the first swim awaits!

Deep in the blue sea

Snorkeling is a must-do! There are so many natural beauties right under the waves it’s almost a sin not to dive right in and swim with the local marine wildlife. Just as we got back to Porto Pollo we’ll have dinner, enjoy the nightlife on the beach, and work on our moonlight tan!

Get on the board!

More sports time for our trip! This time we’ll try surfing, windsurfing or SUP. Practice makes perfect, and we all know one day of surfing won’t make us pros, but either way, it’s gonna be a success!

Valle della Luna

It’s time again to move away from Porto Pollo: not very far away, we’ll find Rena Majore, another natural beauty Sardinia has to offer! Let’s find the right kiosk for lunch and let’s then dive right in the sea and let’s try to find out every secret of it. Snorkeling is again the best activity around here - wear mask and fins and dive right in the blue water! We’ll stick around until sunset, which we’ll enjoy chugging a cold beer, and then we can decide if sticking around to enjoy the moonlight it’s worth it. Hippie communities called this place Moon Valley (Valle della Luna) because of the reflection of the moonlight on the rocks around here!

Let's get wet!

If you thought you’d come to Sardinia and sleep on the beach the whole time… well, you were wrong - there will be time for that, but not today! This morning we’ll stay in Porto Pollo and try water sports: we can surf, windsurf, sail or SUP. Today’s challenge: don’t slip in the water!

Small Paradise

In the afternoon we’ll have an unforgettable experience - we’ll get to La Maddalena, 60 small mesmerizing islands that are a slice of heaven on earth. The local flora and fauna will leave you speechless, and we might even meet some local bottlenose dolphins, they’re usually very friendly and you never know when they will come around!

A little bit of culture...

Seeing La Maddalena only once wasn’t enough, so today we’ll go back but we’ll choose a specific spot! The whole day will be dedicated to exploring the island of Caprera which offers postcard-worthy landscapes. First thing, we’ll visit Garibaldi’s home-museum, who landed here first in 1855, and after this cultural moment we’ll have our packed lunch and get ready to spend the afternoon on the island!

...and a little bit of Tahiti!

We really can’t miss out on Cala Coticcio beach, the most exotic beach in Caprera - so much that it was renamed “Tahiti”. As usual we’ll find fine, white sand and deep crystal clear water; we’ll walk to Cala Coticcio and we’ll enjoy it to the fullest.

Kayak time

Early rise and solid breakfast - today we won’t go to the beach, but we’ll go inland and we’ll get to Valledoria, and we’ll spend the whole day...kayaking! We’ll decide together what to do but the kayaks are calling us; we can relax tomorrow, today it’s time to row!

Beach Chiringuitos

The kayaking route will make us discover a new Sardinia we haven’t had quite seen, made of colored flora and ochre-colored rocks. We’ll then go back to Porto Pollo around dinner time, tired but satisfied - not too tired to miss out a walk on the beach and stop by a Chiringuito!

Surf or bed time?

Last night we might have gone to bed really late...whoever needs to rest, the bed is fresh and comfy and you can spend the whole morning in it! If you feel like spending the last hours here trying to dominate the waves, this morning we can try surfing again! Will you stay on top of the board today?

Porto Cervo!

We cannot miss out on one last time on the seaside! We’ll move towards Porto Cervo and we’ll go to Liscia Ruja, the biggest beach in Costa Smeralda. Relax is the word of the day. We will chill on the beach, swim and enjoy these dreamlike landscapes. Last dinner and one last toast to our fellow travellers, and let’s party!

Check out and goodbye

Check-out and goodbye – until your next WeRoad adventure!
