    Very fun experience. We had never slept on a boat before so it was great being on the water and watching the sunset and sunrise. You get parked in a beautiful private bay where the only sounds are the birds and the water. Excellent! Room...

    It was a unique exirience. Really enjoyed to spend the night in that quiet little bay, where I could see the sunset and the sunrise. The boat is comfortable, there is a shower and even a small cooking stove. Definitely recomend it!

    Un bateau de petite taille reste un bateau, son. Il faut oublier de la chambre d’hôtel mais l’emplacement était un rêve: impression d’être dans une piscine privée alors que c’est la mer avec vue sur le coucher et le levé de soleil!

Sleeping on a boat is a bit of a dream for everyone, try my experience by staying on my boat, a small open 8.5 meters very comfortable, the bay chosen for the night will be the small beach of Isola dei Cavalli, a small island south of Olbia, an uninhabited island and still wild, a popular destination for many sailors and in this last period also for famous people and Hollywood actors, Anna Hetaway, Margot Robby and Bradly Cooper for example who seek tranquility and privacy. We will reach the pre-established place in the evening, around 5 pm when all the other boats have left, so as to have the best position to fully enjoy the tranquility of the crystal clear sea and the white sand of the island and the nature that surrounds you. During the experience you will be completely alone, you can give vent to your freedom, in short you can do what you want, in some way you will have the sensation of living like a savage for a night. Spectacular sunset, the starry sky and the sunrise that will frame your experience. If staying overnight on the boat is not enough for you, there is the possibility of staying on the boat during the day, with a price that will be agreed directly with Luca based on your needs and availability at the time. Possibility of a personalized tour between the islands.
My name is Luca and I live with my partner Cristina, my three children and the little dog in this corner of paradise, we are simple and easy-going people, we like to meet new people and learn about other cultures and customs. We apologize if we are not perfect, but in everything we do for you we put our heart, this activity was born to survive this increasingly demanding life. I will take care of the boat and your stay, 20 years of experience on boats of all kinds, I will be your guide for this experience
We are in the Marine Protected Area of ​​Tavolara, an uncontaminated corner where everything is still as it once was, the islets that make up this paradise are part of one of the most spectacular places in Nord Sardinia. Porto San Paolo, south of Olbia, is a small well served city, with many restaurants and the characteristic fishing village.
