Embark on a picturesque journey along the Gulf of Orosei from Arbatax and marvel at some of Sardinia's most beautiful coves, many of which are only accessible by sea. Have the chance to take a guided tour of Fico Cave and/or enjoy lunch on board for an extra cost on the day.
As you leave Arbatax harbor behind, admire Isolotto d'Ogliastra's vibrant colors of pink granite and red porphyry. Just after passing Santa Maria Navarrese, see the limestone-dolomite rock of Pedra Longa, the "guardian" of the treasures and secrets of the area, rising steeply from the sea.
Continue past the spectacular Baus waterfalls and through the Colombi cave and Cape Monte Santo until you arrive at two stunning fjords: Cala Scirocco and Cala Tramontana. In the latter, hear the tragic story of a Levante vessel whose remains can be glimpsed in the transparent waters of the seabed.
Next, head to the extraordinary Cala Goloritzé and admire its characteristic arch, where the beach and the sea appear like a painting. After leaving this slice of maritime Eden behind, you'll arrive at Cala Mariolu.

Here, you can disembark and enjoy the beach — with umbrellas available to rent from the boat — or take a guided tour of the Grotta del Fico (Fico Cave). Pay the entry fee, then explore the cave's unique limestone formations and hear how they were once the realm of the Mediterranean monk seal.

Once back on board and the navigation resumes, head to the welcoming dining room to enjoy a zero-kilometer appetizer of local cheeses and cured meats. Savor prosciutto, guanciale, and coppa strictly from the area while immersed in the wild beauty of the Baunei coast.

But the highlight of the onboard lunch is the fregola with seafood, prepared with a seafaring recipe from Ponza passed down through generations. Get an authentic taste of the sea as the squid and calamari sauce blends with the exquisite flavor of crabs, enriched with mussels and prawn tails.
Enjoy a glass of Ogliastra wine with the main course before concluding with a slice of "sapa" cake with walnuts and seasonal fruits for dessert. Lunch is not included in the tour price.

After this fulfilling culinary experience, you'll arrive at the beach of Cala Luna, where you can disembark and relax in one of the most picturesque places in the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Later, as the route is reversed, the motorboat provides the exciting experience of Cala Sisine beach. This is also a stop where you can disembark. The tour then concludes by returning to Arbatax harbor.
