Sardinia Yacht Charter “Must Do”
Sardinia is famous for the most beautiful beaches in the entire Mediterranean Sea. Beaches like Li Coggi beach, Cala Gonone or the Costa Smeralda consistently appear on the “The World’s Best Beaches” lists. Another amazing beach is La Pelosa which is near Stintino. Parco Nazionale Arcipelago Di La Maddalena is a national park in the north of Sardinia offering stunning views and unspoilt nature. You can see Corsica from the most northern island of La Maddalena, Isola Razzoli on a clear day. Consisting of seven major islands, Maddalena Archipelago is a UNESCO World Heritage site of Sardinia and the small beaches and coves are only reachable by boat. Enjoy fine luxury at the Costa Smeralda, in the north-east of Sardinia, a favourite holiday destination of the most wealthiest people in the world. Ever since Prince Aga Khan visited this region in the Sixties, many celebrities have chosen the Sardinian Emerald Coast to spend their vacation. Porto Cervo marina is the most popular for a Sardinia Yacht Charter during summer.
