Isola di Spargi - Stop on the beach at Cala Corsara.
The departure of the tour is scheduled at 10:20 am from the commercial port of Palau, pier n°5. After a few minutes of navigation, we reach the island of Spargi for the first stop on the enchanting beach of Cala Corsara. Here you spend two hours in one of the most beautiful bays of the archipelago; you can relax on its white sands, swim in the turquoise waters or explore the nearby paths to reach panoramic points that will leave you breathless. Cala Corsara is also famous for the particularity of its rocks shaped by atmospheric agents, including the “Witch’s Head”, the “Bulldog Dog” and the “Italian Boot”.
There are also structures of historical interest, mostly freely visitable, including the Zavagli Battery, which still retains the machine gun positions. -
Isola di Budelli - Stop on the beach at the Natural Pools.
The second stop is scheduled on the island of Budelli. After having sailed along the fascinating eastern side of the island of Spargi, we will head north to immediately reach the island of Budelli. First, we will stop to admire and take some photos of the famous Pink Beach, bound by stringent environmental protection regulations. Shortly after, our crew will accompany you to the Natural Pools of Budelli, as the name suggests, known for its crystal clear waters. We will then stop on the beach opposite for a long break of an hour and a half. -
Isola di Santa Maria - Bathing stop in Santa Maria.
The third stop is scheduled on the island of Santa Maria. The boat will stop in the large bay of the island where you can dive from the boat and swim in its turquoise waters: we recommend that you bring snorkeling equipment with you to admire the uncontaminated nature of these seas! -
La Maddalena - Stop in the historic center of La Maddalena.
The fourth and final stop is scheduled in the historic center of La Maddalena, the only island in the archipelago where there is an urban centre. Therefore, returning from Santa Maria, we will sail along the western and southern coasts of the island of La Maddalena to finally moor at its port. The charming historic center will immediately be within your reach, and you can visit the characteristic squares, historical monuments and the main shopping and workshop streets on foot.

Wonderful tour well organized - THE tour to the Maddalena archipelago is organized very well by this company (Riviera di Gallura). THE Owner and master of the ship does this job with passion and makes sure that everything is perfect, as well as the mother, very kind and friendly. they made us go down to the island of Spargi (where we stayed 1 hour and a half) , which has a lovely sea. They warned us not to bring anything to eat as wild boars live on the use. other hikers travelling on other boats of other companies had not been warned by their organizers and the wild boars took food from their bags...
the tour continued and we were also given the opportunity to dive from the boat trampoline: beautiful!
at the end of the tour we were also dropped off at the village of La Maddalena to visit it (I took the opportunity to buy souvenirs)
Departure and return on time.

A fantastic family and family experience - Found by chance while searching in the multitude of options, they were the only ones that seemed reliable to me for a family outing having even a 6 month old baby and then a stroller .. and I was right.! Very kind and very reliable, all the staff has always worked to be supportive during the descent on the islands with the stroller, indeed that on the island of Budelli (they are the only ones authorized to let people down on that island) they just took charge of the stroller taking it to them on the raft that accompanied us to the shore, and even for the return they did everything, fantastic!
That said, very genuine and practical, captain with so much experience and so many anecdotes to share during the routes, and what about lunch!! Spaghettata with shrimp simple but fantastic, very kind and very good cook, and they even did the encore (among other things is the captain's mom)!!
It seems to spend a day with the family.!
Absolutely recommended, when we return to these areas (in a few years, without a stroller) we will definitely go around the islands with them!

Excellent organization - Very valid excursion in the Maddalena Archipelago that touches various points. The journeys in on the motorship are quite fast and a good time is given for stops. Cala Corsara on the Island of Spargi with descent into the quay, Santa Maria Island only photographic stop, Budelli Island with descent by raft / rubber boat or swimming for those who feel like it and finally La Maddalena city. Excellent and very clear in the explanations the commander but in general all the staff is appreciable. You can book lunch on board. The only thing I didn't like was that with each ascent people changed seats to sit in better places and since it was overcrowded, maybe too much but it was August, some had to sit on chairs in makeshift and uncomfortable places. I booked the excursion in an agency with a small deposit and then I paid on board, you can also pay with cards.

The most beautiful hike of my life - I participated in the excursion of the archipelago of La Maddalena in June 2024, with my partner and a 5-year-old girl.
Departure at 10:20 from the port of Palau, pier 5 (Recommendation to arrive at the parking lots of via Fonte Vecchia around 9:30, or you risk missing the ship).
The excursion is beautifully organized: there is no downtime, short crossings (15/20 minutes) between islands and 4 long stops. I specify that the ship is the first to leave, so we arrived in a deserted Spargi (we took the best places in Cala Corsara) and also in the following stops we arrived among the first.
In order, the stops are:
Scatter (Cala Corsara)
-Budelli (Knight's Beach)
-Santa Maria (stop diving)
-The Magdalene
The places comment themselves, the colors of the sea are unique and there are some of the most beautiful bays in the world.
Possibility to eat on board an excellent pasta with shrimp sauce, the mother of the very nice commander is an excellent cook. If you decide to eat on board, however, you must return to the boat a little earlier from Cala Corsara (about 40 minutes), so the choice is strictly personal.
The day of my excursion the island of Santa Maria was particularly crowded, so the commander decided to make us stop for dives at the natural pools of Budelli, in which, at that time, there were few boats: I think it was more of a fluke, because the Pools of Budelli are perhaps the most incredible place in the whole archipelago.
Finally, an excellent ice cream on the island of La Maddalena, recommended by the commander.
In short, a memorable day.

Not to be missed, with expert guides, in a cheerful and familiar environment - Fantastic excursion with local, Expert staff, who immerses you in stories and curiosities about the spectacular places and beaches of the archipelago.
They make you feel at home, welcomed and at ease. They're trying to please you, even if there are many on the ship.
Perhaps it would take more attention to some details, such as the availability of products on menus, but they made it up to you with a hearty encore for lunch.
Recommended!
