Tavolara boat trip
Tavolara
Tavolara, a jewel set in the Sardinian sea, is an island that fascinates with its history, its wild nature and the beauty of its coasts. Thousand-year-old legends surround this limestone massif, passing down stories of pirates, hidden treasures and island kings. Its crystalline bays, such as Cala Tramontana, offer breathtaking views and transparent waters, ideal for snorkelling and diving.
The most hidden coves, reachable only by sea, are a refuge for those seeking tranquility and intimacy, surrounded by uncontaminated nature.
Its most recent history is linked to the singular story of the Kingdom of Tavolara, a small independent monarchy born in the 19th century and which lasted until the 1960s. The Bertoleoni family reigned on this island, living in complete autonomy.
Now the wild nature of Tavolara is home to a rich biodiversity: endemic species such as the Tavolara broom color the cliffs, while numerous species of sea birds, including seagulls, cormorants and peregrine falcons, nest on the cliffs overlooking the sea, creating a fascinating spectacle of nature.
Molara boat trip
Molara
Molara, a little-known pearl in the Tavolara Punta Coda Cavalllo Marine Protected Area, is an island that enchants with its wild and uncontaminated beauty. In the crystalline sea in front of Porto San Paolo, its jagged coasts, shaped by the wind and the sea, hide hidden coves and crystalline bays, perfect for snorkelling lovers.
Here too, legends of pirates and hidden treasures hover over this island, wrapping it in an aura of mystery. Stories handed down over time tell of an exiled Pope who found refuge in this corner of paradise.
Molara today is a paradise, famous for its waters called "Natural Pools of Molara" and for those seeking tranquility and contact with nature, a place where time seems to stop.
