Destinations for Yacht Charter in Sardinia
Discover Sardinia Aboard a Private Yacht
Sardinia is one of the Mediterranean’s most stunning destinations for a private yacht charter: pristine coves, protected natural parks, world-class gastronomy, and a coastline full of luxury and sophistication. Sailing around the island allows you to access hidden beaches unreachable by land, anchor in secluded areas, and enjoy a relaxed and exclusive experience at your own pace.
We have designed two itineraries, ranging from 6 to 8 days, showcasing two very different but complementary sides of Sardinia. On one hand, the glamorous Costa Smeralda and the Maddalena Archipelago with crystal-clear waters, iconic stops like Porto Cervo and Phi Beach, and some of the best beaches in the Mediterranean. On the other hand, the wild southern coast, featuring long white sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs, picturesque villages, and an authentic connection with nature.
Both itineraries offer a balanced combination of relaxation, outdoor activities, and gourmet experiences, fully adaptable to the type of yacht and guests’ preferences. Whether seeking maximum privacy or an adventurous journey, a yacht charter in Sardinia guarantees an unforgettable voyage.
