La Maddalena Archipelago

La Maddalena: unique activities amidst crystal-clear sea and dream islands

The La Maddalena Archipelago is a natural gem in northeastern Sardinia, famous for its crystal-clear waters, Caribbean-style beaches, and wild islands waiting to be explored. It’s one of the most popular destinations for boat excursions, island-hopping tours, and days surrounded by pure beauty.

With over 60 islands—including the iconic Spargi, Budelli, Caprera and Razzoli—the archipelago is part of a protected National Marine Park. Each island is a small paradise, with white-sand beaches, wind-sculpted granite rocks and unspoiled Mediterranean nature.

Boat tours in La Maddalena are the top activity to explore this corner of Sardinia: departing from Palau or La Maddalena town, you’ll reach secret coves, swim in emerald waters and admire iconic spots like Cala Coticcio or the protected Pink Beach of Budelli, accessible only by sea.

Beyond the sea, the archipelago also offers cultural highlights. On Caprera Island, for example, you’ll find the Giuseppe Garibaldi museum-house, a must-see for history lovers. The lively historic center of La Maddalena town is ideal for a walk among local restaurants, artisan shops and harbor views.

With Escursì, you can choose from several activities: daily boat tours, private experiences, horseback rides, guided snorkeling or combined itineraries with trekking and cultural stops. All tours are run by expert local guides, in full respect of the environment.

Visiting La Maddalena means experiencing an authentic Sardinia in harmony with nature. Discover the best tours with Escursì and enjoy a day you’ll never forget.
