Palau: things to do, experiences and activities

Palau: experiences among the sea, trails and flavours of Gallura

Palau is one of the most scenic destinations in Gallura, nestled between the turquoise waters of northern Sardinia and facing the stunning La Maddalena Archipelago. This vibrant seaside village is the perfect starting point for unforgettable boat trips among hidden coves, granite rock formations, and islands that shape a truly unique landscape.

But Palau is also a land of outdoor adventures. Nature lovers can enjoy panoramic hiking trails leading to Punta Sardegna or along the rugged coastline, while those seeking a slower pace can opt for bike or horseback tours through vineyards, Mediterranean scrub and traditional Gallurese “stazzi” (rural farmsteads).

The area is also rich in cultural heritage. Cultural tours reveal ancient Nuragic sites and the pastoral traditions of the region, while food & wine experiences offer tastings of typical products such as pecorino cheese, pane carasau, and Vermentino wine — all shared by the passionate locals who produce them.

With Escursì, you can explore Palau through a wide selection of authentic and sustainable activities, always guided by local experts. Here, sea, nature and tradition blend in a destination that has preserved all its original charm.
