Sailing Charter Corsica and Sardinia
Suggested Itinerary (14 nights)

Below is a suggested itinerary for your Corsica/Sardinia bareboat charter holiday.

DAY 1

Transfer to Cannigione. The small village is charming and the hinterland fertile and green, in marked contract to the barren rocky landscape so often encountered elsewhere. In the summer the town is full of life in an unsophisticated enjoyable way. (approx 14 miles)

OVERNIGHT - CANNIGIONE

DAY 2

Cannigione to Santa Teresa Di Gallura. The town was names after Queen Maria Teresa when a colony from Piedmont was established here in the 19th century. The village is unassuming and the harbour below a peaceful spot except for July and August when it can be quite busy as it is the best departure port for Sardinia, ready for your sailing charter around Corsica and Sardinia. (approx 12 miles)

OVERNIGHT - SANTA TERESA DI GALLURA

DAY 3

Santa Teresa Di Gallura to Bonifacio. Bonifacio remains one of the most picturesque harbours in the world to enter. The striated limestone cliffs create a huge natural balcony over the sea. Explore the citadel and surrounding township. (approx 10 miles)

OVERNIGHT - BONIFACIO

DAY 4

Explore Bonifacio.

OVERNIGHT - BONIFACIO

DAY 5

From Bonifacio head northwest up this scenic coast of Corsica perhaps an overnight in Roccapina. The best anchorage is in the NE of the bay in 3-6m on sand, good holding. However in the summer the anchorage is very popular and you will have to anchor wherever you can. Good shelter from all but southerlies and quite magnificent wild surroundings. (approx 12 miles)

OVERNIGHT - ROCCAPINA

DAY 6

Roccapina to Campomoro. The small village of Campomoro that straggles around the beach is dwarfed by the steep bare slopes rising up behind it. It is an attractive place on the edge of the beach with tall palm trees dotted about giving it a North African feel. (approx 15 miles)

OVERNIGHT - CAMPOMORO

DAY 7

Relax in Campomoro.

OVERNIGHT - CAMPOMORO

DAY 8

With the wind behind make a long run to Iles Lavezzi an island on the southern tip of Corsica. Visit the memorial to the wreck of the Semilente. (approx. 35 miles)

OVERNIGHT - LAVEZZI

DAY 9

Relax Lavezzi.

OVERNIGHT - LAVEZZI

DAY 10

Sail south to the Maddalena group of islands. These islands are larger and greener than the northern group. There are numerous anchorages and the sea is crystal clear turquoise and aquamarine over a rock and sand bottom. (approx 10 miles)

OVERNIGHT - ISALA LA MADDALENA

DAY 11

Explore the Maddalena islands south group.

OVERNIGHT - ISOLA SPARGI

DAY 12

Another day to explore the Maddalena island group.

OVERNIGHT - ISOLA SPARGI

DAY 13

To Porto Cervo, perhaps the most exclusive port in the world. Porto Cervo is the yachting hub of the Consorzio Costa Smeralda and one of the first parts of the Costa Smeralda to be developed. It cost millions of dollars to build; a millionaires' playground that looks like an ethnic fishing village grown big, and it works - at least, it works architecturally. (approx 10 miles)

OVERNIGHT - PORTO CERVO

DAY 14

Return to Cannigione for early disembarkment.

OVERNIGHT - CANNIGIONE

DAY 15

Disembark.


NB: This is a suggested itinerary only and is, of course, subject to weather conditions and how much sailing you wish to do.
