Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 54 DS (2004)

In the middle of the western Mediterranean, where Corsica and Sardinia chase each other in one of the most seductive stretches of sea in the world, the Maddalena Archipelago emerges in all its beauty.

Located more precisely off the north-eastern coast of Sardinia, it is made up of seven major islands (Maddalena, Caprera, Santo Stefano, Spargi, Budelli, Santa Maria and Razzoli), numerous islets and smaller rocks.

Covered with plants typical of the Mediterranean scrub, all these islands, largely uninhabited, are characterised by a succession of inlets and beaches with very fine sand bathed by a wonderful emerald-coloured sea. Another determining element of the undisputed charm of this Archipelago is undoubtedly the granite nature of its rocks, shaped over thousands of years by the sea and the wind.

To protect such an environmental heritage, the Archipelago National Park was established in 1996 with the aim of preserving the magnificent marine flora and fauna that characterise it.

During navigation we will be constantly surrounded by indescribable natural scenery that even enchanted Napoleon, Nelson and Garibaldi. How can we not mention, for example, Cala Corsara, which is located on the island of Spargi, where a very fine white beach merges with a clear and crystalline sea, or the Pink beach on the island of Budelli, which takes its name from the characteristic colour that its sand takes on due to the crumbling of the shells of some marine microorganisms. Finally, Bonifacio is an obligatory stop for those who choose to visit the Archipelago; the incredible view at the entrance to the port, which is accessed through a fjord with white rock walls over 70 meters high, leaves anyone breathless…

N.B. the cost for the ports we will visit during the week is expected, including the port of embarkation and disembarkation.
