You can admire Tavolara Island from every point of the coast from Golfo Aranci to San Teodoro, but to truly discover it, you must reach it by boat. With our boat trip from Olbia to Tavolara Island, you will have the opportunity to snorkel in the most interesting spots of this protected marine area.
We will leave from the touristic port of Marina di Olbia in the morning, and head towards the Tavolara, where we will stop for swimming and snorkeling. Afterwards, we will move on to the nearby islet, Molara, to swim in the stunning natural pools of emerald green water. Our trip continues on to the Spiaggia del Dottore, a beach with white sand and a great diversity of fish.
The last two snorkeling stops of the day will be Cala Girolu and the wreck of the Chirisso, a Cypriot boat that got stranded during a storm in 1974. On our boat trip, we will offer you typical Sardinian specialities and a nice cold beer to enjoy while admiring the beautiful nature that surrounds you.
