5.00A truly beautiful experience, made even more special by the professionalism and attention of Claudia and Fabio, exceptional guides who created a welcoming and pleasant atmosphere from the very first moment, keeping the group united and engaged throughout the entire excursion. Nothing is left to chance; every detail is taken care of with passion, from the management of the route to the explanations, which are always interesting. Their ability to enhance every moment of the experience makes it light, authentic, and fun, allowing everyone to feel at ease. They are always available, attentive to each person's needs, and they convey a great love for the area and for what they do. Thanks to their energy, competence, and friendliness, every outing with them becomes an unforgettable memory. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to discover the place ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The experience of a lifetime

5.00By far, one of the most incredible experiences of my life! We chose to do the activity at sunrise in the morning, and were accompanied by our two 10-year-old children. It was completely magical! The water was very calm and suddenly: we saw dolphins jumping around us, there was even a baby. The guide took lots of beautiful photos and videos with his Drôme who shared us! A moment we will never forget. The guide was very respectful of nature, and when the dolphins approached, we had to stay calm on our paddleboards so as not to scare them. At one point, my son was very tired, and his arm hurt from paddling, and one of the guides hung him on his board and gently towed it. Real professionals! I highly recommend this activity
Kindest Team & Stunning Memories

5.00We booked with Sardinia On Board for the third time and it was just as amazing, if not better! This time, we brought our 1-year-old daughter and all three of us went on a big paddleboard together. She’s now the youngest customer they’ve ever had. Record! 😄 Fabio, Claudia, and Simone are the kindest people, warm, professional, and full of genuine passion. The photos and drone footage are stunning and will stay with us forever. If you want more than just an activity and instead a memory you’ll never forget, book with Sardinia On Board. 100% recommended💙
Great evening of SUP with lovely guides

5.00We had a lovely evening SUP with Claudia, Fabio and Simone. They were great guides and were very patient checking in that everyone had a good time and giving lots of interesting information about Sardinia. The information beforehand was very useful, particularly the video of how to get to the car park. We saw dolphins and had some very tasty home grown/baked snacks. I would definitely recommend this trip, it was a great way to start our Sardinian holiday!
Experience to be redone!!

5.00I had never tried and I was quite skeptical and instead I had so much fun. It is an activity that can be done by everyone even if not physically trained. We saw some beautiful places and we even got a glimpse of the dolphins. Our teachers, Fabio, Claudia and Simone are very nice and really good. You don't need to bring anything because photos and videos are taken directly from them. Having gone in the sunset hour, in the middle of the tour they had also organized an aperitif in a cove!
Gorgeous sunset, dolphins and amazing guides!

NOT TO BE MISSED!!!❤️

5.00Claudia and Fabio are extraordinary people, when we arrive we meet people who are radiant and who want to know us.☀️ I also note Claudia’s involvement, who learned our first names by heart to familiarize the visit to the maximum. We start our activity with a mini demo of Fabio, about the use of paddle in water.🌊 Then we take a trip to a fish farm, and Fabio and Claudia explain that the dolphins come here because there is food. If you were afraid of the exploitation of dolphins, know that you are missing the plate! Claudia and Fabio are very clear, we do not paddle if a dolphin is too close, nor do we dive to join him. Then we go paddling to a protected island, where we have breakfast. Fruits, homemade muffins, coffees, juices, water..🍽️ Fabio used a funny during our getaway, and made us beautiful photos. He also has a professional camera, which he uses throughout this tour. They are passionate people and we had a wonderful time. The photos they take are totally free! They sent them to us the same evening, to download.📸 This is really the expedition not to be missed.
What a way to start the day!

5.00Amazing experience! No better way to experience a Sardinian Sunrise. Our group saw dolphins, had a nice calm day on the water and I eventually got the hang of standing on the board after a few falls in the water :D This is a must do when visiting beautiful Golfo Aranci. Fabio, Claudia & Simone were great and the photos and videos provided afterwards were real quality!
First time in sup

5.00Experience to do with this team of young Fabio, Claudia and the new entry Simone, from the beach of the Baracconi to the island of Figarolo and Cala Moresca
Must visit again!

5.00This tour is a once in a lifetime experience although I have decided to go again every year from now on! 😅 This tour made my nerves so calm as I was in the beautiful nature with friends. We saw some dolphins but the whole experience of being in the nature without any carbon footprint made my environmental heart feel good. The tourguides Claudia and Fabio were extremely supportive and friendly and the tour felt personal. Great value for money and definitely recommend for all levels!
