You push off from Alghero’s marina and the city peels away behind you—stone walls, fishing boats, and voices shrinking as the dinghy slips into open water. The skipper eases the throttle and the coastline stretches into chalky cliffs that watch the sea; the wind tugs at your hair, the water dares you to dive in. Stops are quick, intimate: Cala Inferno’s hidden shelves, the emerald pools of Cala Dragunara and the shallow turquoise of Capo Galera.

You push off from Alghero’s marina and the city peels away behind you—stone walls, fishing boats, and voices shrinking as the dinghy slips into open water. The skipper eases the throttle and the coastline stretches into chalky cliffs that watch the sea; the wind tugs at your hair, the water dares you to dive in. Stops are quick, intimate: Cala Inferno’s hidden shelves, the emerald pools of Cala Dragunara and the shallow turquoise of Capo Galera.
This stretch of Sardinia is shaped by limestone uplift and wave-carved caves—Capo Caccia’s cliffs drop nearly 180 meters into the Tyrrhenian and hide Neptune’s Grotto below. Alghero carries a distinct Catalan imprint in its dialect and cuisine; the aperitif on board (fresh fruit, local cheeses and a glass of prosecco or soda) is a small taste of that hybrid culture. The route runs inside the Capo Caccia-Isola Piana marine protected area, where clear water reveals seagrass meadows and rocky reefs.
Practicalities are straightforward: the trip is about four hours, suitable for most fitness levels, and includes snorkel gear and a SUP. Expect short swims from the boat, uneven rock entries, and sun exposure—reef-safe sunscreen and a snug mask make the experience better. Photography is easy from the dinghy; the crew records underwater clips if you want souvenirs. Book early in high season, arrive at the marina 20–30 minutes before departure, and plan transport back to central Alghero where narrow lanes and seafood restaurants await.
