It was a great way to see the water and beaches of Cala Ganone, you just anchor where you like and spend as much or little time in each location without having to worry about a schedule. The kids enjoyed just jumping off the boat when we reached a stunning location. Lots of snorkeling and caves to explore. We were given an ice box for our lunch and drinks, umbrella and the boat had a sun shade to use if required. If there is one thing you do in Cala Ganone, this should be it. Best day I have ever had on a holiday.

We went to Cala Goritze first then back along the beaches and had great fun cruising looking at the impressive coastline, caves and beaches and also push the limit to high-speeds and bouncing across the coast!
One of must be a strong swimmer to be able to get to shore after dropping anchor (which is not difficult) and luckily, we both were so did not have to faff with paddling to shore and then out again (motors cannot be run right near the shore). Afterwards, filled up the tank at the dock fuel station - which we were told about earlier - cost around 30 Euros. Overall, had a brilliant day - will be very memorable.

Best day in Sardegna. Thanks a lot for that experience!!!

Really easy to deal with by email before, and in person while there. Loved driving my own boat (never done it before, but was quality). Matey instructed us how to... read more operate it, but the part where you drive into the shore to drop off people then head back out was not very clear (I think a practise attempt at the nearby Cala Gonone beach should have been included). Didnt matter much in the end anyway, as every time I tried to do it on any of the beaches, a grumpy old man would shout at me to F off back out to sea (apparently it was too wavy for small boats, but that was a load of crap, as other boats of the same size were allowed in - the tour ones with pro
drivers). Ended up anchoring 100m from shore for each beach, and swimming in, but couldn't bring towels that way, so spoilt it slightly. Also wasn't allowed on Mariole beach at all as didn't have a 1 euro ticket which you must have before you leave port (Palmesera said it was a new rule that particular beach owner brought in on that day, but other boats had them and were allowed on, so not sure why they didn't know about it, which was a real let down - they said I could drive back to another beach miles away to purchase one, but I shouldn't have to if they gave me it at the start - I doubt I'd even be able to get one there anyway as they wouldn't even let me near the beach to get my wallet out). Overall a great day, but I think I'd go for the 12 person with driver tour next time, as you're guaranteed to get on the beaches without rebuff - not Palmasera's fault, but they could have warned us it might happen - wasn't told jack about it. Reason I rented one was basically to smash up the waves and that part was totally worth it, but beach wise it was a bit of a disaster. €40 for petrol at the end made it €200 in total, which was double what we would have paid if doing the driver tour for €50 each, but no qualms about that, although would have been 'more' worth it if they'd let us on at least one bloody beach!

The boat (rib) was very nice and... read more a perfect size with room to spare for the 4 of us (3 adults and a 7 year old). We met at the booking hut (at the beach drop off point by the car park), filled in the paperwork, were given a cool box and a brolly, then walked half way down the beach to pick the boat up. Then started a great day of exploring the coast line (we went south), snorkelling and generally have a great time. Anchoring where we liked very close to the shore(except cordoned off beaches). You will need towels to cover the rubber as you climb back into the boat because it gets very hot! Climbing back aboard from the sea was a bit hard work with quite a short ladder but once one of you is back aboard its much easier because they can help the others. Well worth the money for a day of exploring away from the busy beaches.

Highly recommend grabbing sandwiches to go from Retrovino Market Bar for lunch later!

Cala Gonone, Orosei
DESTINATIONS

Grotta del bue marino
The ‘Grotta del Bue Marino’ is a sea cave whose karst system extends over 70 km inland. Guided tours from April to September.

Cala luna
The ‘pearl of the Mediterranean’ can be reached in just 10 minutes by boat or by trekking, and is also famous for its beautiful grottos. There is the only refreshment point in the gulf.

cala sisine
It rises at the end of a channel that was once a river bed, but is now the mouth of a small stream, which springs from the Golgo plateau. It can be reached by dinghy in about 20 minutes.

piscine di venere
Just before arriving at Biriola, you can dive into a stretch of water with bright colours ranging from turquoise to emerald green and from blue to deep blue. Real natural pools where you can only anchor with small boats.

Cala biriola
A delightful cove of rounded white pebbles, protected by the limestone cliffs, a grove of centuries-old holm oaks, junipers and typical Mediterranean vegetation.

Grotta del fico
Caves can be visited with an expert guide. The caves were once frequented by monk seals, the last sightings of which date back to the late 1980s.

cala mariolu
Cala Mariolu is one of the most beautiful beaches on the east coast of beautiful Sardinia and the Gulf of Orosei. A dip in the sea that looks painted. It is also known as ‘is puligi de nie’ (the snow fleas) for the round white and pink pebbles that look like snowflakes.

Cala dei gabbiani
A natural continuation of Cala Mariolu, it has the same characteristics. A hidden gem, less famous but just as beautiful, in the Baunei area. A southern corner of paradise in the Gulf of Orosei. Very close is Cala delle Sorgenti, whose name derives from the freshwater springs that flow into the sea from the limestone rock.

Cala goloritzé
One of the most beautiful beaches in the Mediterranean: a painting born of a fantastic dream. The seabed is surreally beautiful and the turquoise waters flow from underwater karst springs. The natural arch and the famous 143-metre-high pyramid-shaped spire are the backdrop to this Natural Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1994.
