Boat excursions from Palau to Spargi, Budelli and the La Maddalena Archipelago

Palau is one of the most popular starting points for visiting the La Maddalena Archipelago by catamaran or sailboat.

From here we sail between Spargi, Budelli, Santa Maria and Caprera crossing some of the most transparent waters in North Sardinia, with stops for swimming, snorkeling and days truly experienced at sea.

BOAT TRIPS FROM PALAU

The La Maddalena Archipelago completely changes when you experience it from the sea

There are points in the archipelago that from land seem far away, almost unreachable.
Then you get there by boat and everything changes: very shallow water, clear rocks, clear seabed, and stops at bays where time really seems to slow down.

The days are built by following the sea and not too strict an itinerary, just to always choose the best conditions.
