Nestled along the rugged coastline of Sardinia, the charming town of Cala Gonone serves as a gateway to some of the most breathtaking coastal scenery in Italy. One of the best ways to explore this stunning region is by embarking on a boat trip that takes you on a journey through pristine waters, hidden coves and enchanting grottoes. Don't miss an unforgettable experience on a boat trip from Cala Gonone and discover the true essence of Sardinian beauty.
Huw & Alison from Just Sardinia relate their boat trip in October:
Our adventure began at the picturesque harbour of Cala Gonone, where the azure waters of the Mediterranean glistened in the morning sun. We had booked a private boat tour (through Hotel Brancamaria), ensuring an personalised experience. Our boat captain, a jovial local with a deep knowledge of the area, welcomed us on board and briefed us on the day's itinerary.
The boat sped away from the harbour and we soon found ourselves surrounded by towering cliffs that define the Gulf of Orosei. As we ventured deeper into this rugged landscape, the captain steered us towards hidden coves only accessible only by boat. Crystal-clear waters lapped against the rocky shore, and we couldn't resist the temptation to take a refreshing dip. It felt like our own private paradise.
One of the highlights of our boat trip was the opportunity to explore the mesmerizing sea caves and grottoes dotted along the coastline. Our captain skilfully navigated into the Bue Marino caves, named after the monk seals that used to inhabit them. Inside, the shimmering emerald waters created an other-worldly ambiance. Stalactites and stalagmites adorn the cave ceilings, casting surreal shadows as we explored deeper into the darkness.
Our boat trip continued to the furthest point of Cala Goloritzé with an incredible limestone pinnacle and the most crystal clear aqua water you've ever seen. We then came back to Cala Mariolu where we disembarked onto a white sand beach and had a wonderful swim in the electric blue sea.
Our boat trip included a stop at a secluded beach, Cala Sisine, where we enjoyed a delicious Sardinian picnic prepared by the boat crew. With our feet in the warm sand and a glass of local wine in hand, we savoured the fresh seafood and traditional cheeses while taking in the panoramic views of the rugged cliffs and the pristine sea. It was a moment of pure relaxation and bliss.
Cala Luna is a name that resonates with beauty, and it lived up to its reputation. Our boat anchored in this idyllic bay, and we had a last opportunity to dive into the turquoise sea. The sea was so clear that we could see colourful fish darting around us. It was a surreal experience, and the perfect spot for snorkelling.
As the day began to wane, we headed back towards Cala Gonone. The setting sun bathed the cliffs in warm, golden hues while we sipped Sardinian limoncello and felt grateful we had such amazing weather to witness such natural beauty. The boat trip had exceeded our expectations in every way.
A boat trip from Cala Gonone is more than just a journey, it's an exploration of nature's wonders, a taste of local culture and a feast for the senses. As we disembarked back at the harbour, we knew we had experienced something truly extraordinary. We highly recommend this amazing adventure along the enchanting east coast of Sardinia. We had been meaning to do this boat trip for years after having many pictures of this coastline on the front cover of our brochures! And it didn't disappoint.
