Santa Maria Navarrese: Grotta del Fico and Beaches Boat Trip – Sardinia, Italy

EXPERIENCE:

Start early and beat the crowds on a morning boat tour from Santa Maria Navarrese straight to Cala Mariolu to enjoy this nature wonder during the quiet hours. Cruise along the Baunei coast to highlights like the Grotta del Fico, Cala Goloritzè, and the Pool of Venus. Make stops to swim and explore.

Arrive in Cala Mariolu and take a walk on the white sand. Swim with thousands of fish and admire all the shades of the turquoise waters. Visit the beach’s small snack bar where you can find cold drinks (costs not included).

After approximately 1.5 hours, your skipper will return and take you to the second stop, a swimming spot very close to Cala Mariolu and Cala dei Gabbiani. Discover a gorgeous sea bottom, one of the clearest you’ll see during the trip.

Next, visit the Grotta del Fico with included entry tickets. Join a 45-minute guided tour inside the cave. Discover the unbelievably huge chambers, rock formations, underground rivers, and the sea waves coming inside the cave. Cool off for a little with inside temperatures of 20° Celsius.

An afternoon at Cala Biriala is waiting for you next. Discover wild scenery, thick woods, and an arch of rock closing the bay on the south side. Hop in the water for another refreshing swim.

Between the stops, your skipper will find the best moments to stop and swim in the most beautiful spots where the sea colors are even more beautiful. Cala Goloritzè, Piscine di Venere, Baus, and the Grotta della Contessa are just some of the places you might visit.

When the trip comes to a close, unwind on a slow ride along the coast back to the port. Spot hidden gems like fjords, sea caves, high cliffs, and rock monuments.
