What you can expect
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).
Important – August 2025 Update
Due to a new ordinance from the Municipality of Baunei regarding visitor flow management, our boat tour itinerary is now subject to daily changes.
✅ The stop at Cala Mariolu is always guaranteed.
⛱️ Other beach stops (e.g., Cala dei Gabbiani, Cala Biriala, Cala Sisine) depend on the availability of spots assigned daily by the Municipality, based on crowd levels.
We always do our best to offer you the best possible experience, while respecting the rules and protecting this unique natural area.
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.
Between the stops at the beach, 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.
