Gulf of Orosei: Sailing ship tour around the coast - Sardinia, Italy
  • Anywhere

EXPERIENCE:

The DOVESESTO is a nearly 100-year-old ancient sailing ship at anchor in the port of Cala Gonone. From here she departs daily at 10:30 a.m. for a mini-cruise in the Gulf of Orosei, exploring the coast’s most beautiful beaches and caves along the “Wild Blue” route.

Check-in at 10 a.m., bring your lunch.

Just outside the harbor, the sailing ship will skirt the impressive limestone cliffs eroded by the sea. Its gait allows a close view of the different rock and forest scenery that follow one another, interspersed only by the many coves: Cala Luna, Cala Sisine, Cala Biriola, Le Piscine di Venere, Cala Mariolu, Cala Goloritze.
Leaving Cala Luna, we arrive at Cala Sisine, after an hour of navigation. Continuing on, the first stop awaits us, Cala Biriola, a delightful, small, rose-colored beach.
The sailing ship Dovesesto from the bottom anchors, so you can reach the beach by tender or by swimming to shore in the emerald water of radiant transparency. After about two hours, the boat heads for Cala Mariolu not before making a brief stop, to dive into the heavenly waters of the Piscine di Venere. It is at Cala Mariolu or Cala dei Gabbiani, two gulf pearls of indescribable beauty that our guests will enjoy the longest stop of the day.
We resume navigation and arrive at the base of the Aguglia, an imposing elongated rock that stands alone from the sea, and we will admire up close the spectacular natural arch of Goloritze of the beach of the same name.
Just north of the latter cove we stop to reach by dinghy the hidden mouth of a cave, only to find ourselves inside, dazzled by never-before-seen plays of light. Here the plunge is impossible to give up.

Our goal is to present and show you the best way to admire our beautiful gulf from Cala Gonone to the last and wonderful beach of Cala Goloritze before Capo Monte Santo.

Returning, the sailing ship sets the bow homeward, a little offshore, on the route where dolphins often come to greet us with their leaps.
