Beautiful experience - Wonderful experience spent on board, very welcoming, helpful and kind staff. A special thank you goes to the cook who delighted us with her fregola with seafood, simply excellent, all to crown a splendid cruise among the most important and splendid coves of Ogliastra.

Good value for price - This trip is a great way to get on the water and check out a couple beach’s and a Grotto. It’s a great price for what you get. The boat is very spacious and comfortable with a small bar/cafe with pastries and drinks for purchase. The only negative is that you’re not allowed to stay on the boat when it’s time to disembark on a beach. You’ll visit 4 different beach’s, stay for a hour or hour and a half, with most beach’s having very minimum to any shade. By the end of the trip my family and I had too much sun and wanted to stay on the boat in the shade. The staff kicked us off, which was very upsetting considering I was worried that one of us was going to get sun poisoning or have a heat stroke. So, if you plan on attending this cruise know that you will not be able to stay on board and bring your own means of shade.
