Sardinia's Costa Smeralda is a beautiful stretch of Italian coastline named after the breathtaking emerald colour of its waters.

Highlights include Tavolara Island, the sand bar and lagoon at La Cinta and shops at Porto Cervo. Sail to Porco, Santo Stefano and Palau before heading to Corsica’s Bonifacio through the La Maddalena archipelago. You’ll see Spargi, Budelli, Razzoli and much more. In the evenings, retire to your comfortable double cabin while our crew takes care of the sailing and meals.
