Day 1: Cannigione - La Maddalena
Your boarding is scheduled at 1pm, in the marina of Cannigione. You will meet the crew and board your catamaran. After settling in the place and made the tour of the boat, the skipper will hoist the sails in direction of the Maddalena. It is the largest island of the archipelago of the same name. On the west coast, you will find many quiet bays (cala Francese, cala Inferno, cala Nido d'Aquila...) allowing you to make a first dive in the middle of the granite cliffs and relax in the sun.

Day 2: La Maddalena - Spargi - Bonifacio
Today you set sail for Corsica, but first you will make a stop at Spargi. This uninhabited island is primarily known for the presence of the wreck of an ancient Roman ship in the bay of cala Corsara. Going ashore, you will discover a lush and wild nature. You will then sail to the charming city of Bonifacio perched above the sea and nicknamed the "city of cliffs". Do not miss its fortified citadel and its many buildings (the King of Aragon's staircase, the bastion of the standard, the church of Saint Dominic...).

Day 3: Bonifacio - Lavezzi - Cavallo
Head for the archipelago of the Lavezzi islands. Classified as a nature reserve, it offers beautiful seabeds - a real paradise for divers! To make the most of this turquoise water, go to one of the bays, for example cala Achiarina to the west or cala Sderenaia to the east. Then, you will make a stopover on Cavallo. Cavallo is the only inhabited island of the archipelago and is in fact private. It is called "the island of the billionaires" because of the personalities who frequent it. You can nevertheless visit it on foot.

Day 4: Cavallo - Piana - Budelli - Santa Maria
This morning, the skipper will suggest a short stop on the island of Piana. Take advantage of this to take a dip or relax on the beach. You raise the anchor and set sail for Budelli. Particularly protected, it is undoubtedly the wildest island of the Maddalena archipelago. From the boat, you will see its amazing pink sand beach (a geological phenomenon due to the presence of certain micro-organisms). You will end your day on the island of Santa Maria, from where you can admire the sunset.

Day 5: Santa Maria - Razzoli
Indulge in an early morning dip in the clear water of cala Santa Maria or a walk to the island's saltwater lake. Back on the boat, you will head to Razzoli. The high cliffs of this island will offer you several possibilities of anchorage in the middle of enchanting and peaceful scenery. If you choose to sail to the Cala del Rosario (north coast) you will discover an incredible underwater panorama. From here, you can also climb to the Razzoli lighthouse and contemplate the view of the Lavezzi.

Day 6: Razzoli - Caprera
You sail in the direction of Caprera. This island, classified as a nature reserve, was the last home of General Garibaldi. You can learn more about this Italian patriot by visiting his house which has been transformed into a museum. The island's beaches are also worth a visit! Cala Coticcio may even remind you of the tropics, with its fine sand, turquoise water and pink granite rocks. The bay of Portese is shallow and sheltered from the winds, it is the perfect place to relax at the end of the day.

Day 7: Caprera - Cannigione
Take advantage of your morning to walk along the coast to punta Rossa (the southernmost point of the island). During this walk you will pass by the punta Rossa fort, an old military outpost dating from the end of the 19th century. Back on board, it will be time to head for Cannigione, for an arrival at the latest at 5 pm. And why not take advantage of your evening to taste some local specialties such as spaghetti with bottarga (a kind of caviar made of dried mullet roe, sea urchins...), porcheddo (roasted pork) and plenty more?
