Overview

Baunei is considered among Sardinia's most spectacular stretches of coastline, but many of its tiny coves and caves are only accessible by sea. Explore the coastal highlights with this full-day cruise, stopping to swim and snorkel in hidden bays and isolated beaches inhabited by colorful fish and sometimes we can see dolphins. Visit the Grotta del Fico, one of the island's most famous caves, and dive into the turquoise waters all around.

Very pleasant excursion but some environment points to improve

4.00The excursion was excellent but I chose this company because it was mentioned French guide but in fact the explanations were only in Italian and English. Moreover, when arriving at the port of Arbatax, if the boat is not docked there is absolutely no indication on the starting place
Friendly and friendly staff

4.00Very nice and welcoming staff, music on board very funny, the only drawback: we did not bring food because online was "lunch on board", so we took sandwiches in Cala Mariolu, to know I would have brought something! Anyway they offered pastries on the way and watermelon on the way back... better than nothing;) Having two children they reserved us a table, fine. I recommend it
Good but improveable

3.00We stayed yesterday 17/08, we took the ship from Sanata Maria Navarrese and as we went up we found everything occupied by the people who went up to Arbatax. We made the trip standing up and none of the guys asked if we wanted to sit down. I went to see at the top and the “captain” (older gentleman) told me that the side seats were 5€ and the front seats 10€. Which made me sick because if you can't secure everyone's seat, you load less. For the rest the WONDERFUL landscape but in hindsight I would not return with this company.
A regular experience

2.00In August there are many people in the coves and you do not enjoy how beautiful they are. The boat is very good and the staff very friendly. Too bad that visits due to the a*ente and the number of boats that reach the coves do not enjoy it.
Fantastic.

5.00I loved it. The boat is very comfortable, has options to sunbathe, enjoy the sea air, as if to shelter from it. Stops in the coves super enjoyable. The grotto offers magical images. Very friendly staff
Planned mass tourism

4.00Very friendly ship captain, super nice crew and beautiful beaches. These are full of people at the moment. You should know that beforehand. If you get involved, the trip is highly recommended. No rip-offs, planned masses and extremely fair prices on board. We would do this again. Karsten Klauschke
Fantastic motorboat experience

5.00We booked the full tour with motorboat to visit the main coves of Sardinia: very friendly staff who showed us the various stages of the tour and delighted with sweets and fruit while sailing. The coves visited are all wonderful and there is also time to go down to the beaches of greatest interest. Great experience!
Did not expect 1 hour stop

2.00Upon boarding the vessel, a compulsory 2 Euro fee will be imposed. It would have been more efficient if this was incorporated into the initial fee. The initial destination is a picturesque beach. During the journey, a delightful pastry was provided. The next stop is a visit to a cave which requires a 10 euro per person entry fee. To get to the cave, you must climb about 100 steps. Anyone who doesn't pay the extra fee, must wait for one hour in the boat. If you choose to stay in the boat, you will be allowed to jump in the water and swim very close to the boat for no more than 30 minutes. The next 2 stops were lovely. On the return trip watermelon was offered to everyone. It was a nice touch. In conclusion, the stop at the cave should be adjusted. Individuals unable to physically climb those steps should not feel punished sitting for one hour in the boat or just given the alternative to jump from the boat to the ocean (no beach just deep waters) and swim next to the boat because of extensive boat traffic in the area).
Boat ride to heavenly beaches.

5.00The crew was polite and responded to requests. The boat was well maintained and clean. Gratis snacks were available to everyone -- beautiful and varied pastry in the morning followed by watermelon in the evening. The lunch beach break had a full service restaurant and enough time for leisure.
