Porto Rotondo · Costa Smeralda · Sardinia
Rent a private boat with skipper for the day and discover the La Maddalena archipelago and the Costa Smeralda at your own pace — the whole yacht for you, up to 12 guests, no crowds, no fixed schedule.
Why book a private day charter
A day charter from Porto Rotondo is the most beautiful — and most relaxed — way to experience northern Sardinia. Instead of crowded group tours on fixed timetables, you have the entire yacht reserved for your party: you choose where to swim, where to have lunch, and how long to linger in each cove.
Our base in Porto Rotondo is perfectly placed: within an easy cruise you reach the protected waters of the La Maddalena National Park, the glamorous bays of the Costa Smeralda and the wild marine reserve of Tavolara. An experienced local skipper handles everything, so the only thing you have to plan is when to jump in.
Only your group on board — families, friends or couples. Up to 12 guests in complete exclusivity, never shared.
A captain who knows every cove and the day's weather. You relax; the itinerary adapts to the sea and to you.
Swim stops, snorkelling, lunch in a cove or at a famous seaside restaurant, a sunset aperitif — built around your wishes.
Where you can go
We tailor the route to the weather and to what you want to see. The most loved itineraries:
The archipelago's marine park: Spargi and Cala Corsara, Budelli and the Pink Beach, Cala Coticcio (the "Tahiti" of Caprera). Caribbean-like water about an hour away.
From Porto Cervo to Cala di Volpe and Liscia Ruja — the most stylish coves of the coast and the jet-set atmosphere of the Costa Smeralda.
A dramatic mountain-island and marine reserve off Olbia: untouched nature, spectacular seabeds and great snorkelling.
