This day cruise, operated by our experienced British crew, presents a rare opportunity to a select few to embark on what may be a once-in-a-lifetime journey. Our mission is to provide superior quality service and the premier boat trip experience in Alghero. The journey commences from the port, tracing the breathtaking coastline to Capo Caccia, along the notorious Coral Riviera, and making a pit-stop in Porto Conte Bay. Revel in the picturesque landscapes while relaxing on deck, making new acquaintances, or simply lounging on deck.

On your adventure, lunch will be freshly prepared onboard. During a 2-hour halt, there’s a chance to swim and snorkel in a secluded bay with stunning, pristine waters. Complement your experience with a choice of local wines or beer (we also offer soft drinks and water). This package is all-inclusive.

On your return journey in the afternoon, you’re welcome to assist the crew in hoisting the sails for a tranquil cruise back to port. Enjoy a perfect blend of sun, fun, and sailing. If fortune favails, dolphins may even accompany us on our journey!

Lovely day out on the water - Such a fantastic trip, it was the highlight of our visit to Alghero. Beautiful boat, lovely views, great food and such a fab experience to get to help hoist the sails and come back under sail power! Rachel and Colin were really welcoming, a highly recommended experience.

Wonderfully relaxing day - Wonderful, relaxed and slow-paced day. Great swimming location (I snorkeled 12 species of fish). Delicious lunch, I even had gluten-free pasta. On the way back we were able to sail at first (we were allowed to help with setting the sails), but then the wind died down. Top information and support from Rachel and Colin.

Fantastic day - We thoroughly enjoyed our trip on the Andrea Jenson. It was a very relaxing day with great food, wine, and company. There was plenty space to move around the boat and speak to the other guests. Although it wasn't very windy we still sailed back into the harbour. Thank you.

Boat trip - We had a wonderful day with Colin and Rachel and the lovely Anna. They were great hosts lots of information given. The food was fantastic 😋 It was so different to anything else I've done the boat itself had a great story to tell. It was the best money I spent on the holiday.

Great little trip - Great trip. Lots of room. Antipasti food course excellent. Best bit is the scenery and sailing back to port. Will come again.

A must do in Alghero, a true highlight - What a great day out at sea on this 80 year old yacht. Definitely one of the highlights of my time in Sardinia. Apart from being a beautiful boat, Rachel and Colin are great hosts. Colin is the skipper and master of the pasta (the food served is delicious and plentiful) and Rachel the navigator of stories as you cruise past the coastline.I learnt so much from Rachel about the sea, Alghero and the surrounds. Handy hints too when you’re on land. The swims from the boat before and after lunch and on the way back to port will stay with me forever. The colour of the water! There’s a ladder to climb down and back up, or you can jump. Snorkels and masks are provided. Colin and Rachel and crew member Anna inspired such a relax atmosphere, all 12 guests connected, numbers were exchanged, photos shared and encouragement for people to extend themselves and have a great day. I can’t recommend this Alghero experience more highly.

Wonderful day of sailing and good food - Just disembarked from Andrea Jensen. A wonderful sailing ship from the 1930s used for daily outings. Experience to try, perfectly preserved crossing, welcoming and prepared crew. After about 2 hours of sailing to Capo Caccia, we moored to the buoy in the bay of Porto Conte for a nice swim in crystal clear waters. Excellent lunch with the best of the area including cured meats, Caprese cheeses and salad. Then an al dente pasta topped with smoked ricotta and cherry tomatoes. White and red wine, fresh water, soft drinks and beer at will. Finally coffee or tea. Then in the afternoon, having hoisted the sails, we set course for Alghero. A beautiful day, we will certainly return. Thanks to Rachel, Colin and Hanna
