The sun drops gold along the eastern Sardinian coast and the bow parts glassy water as the boat slides away from Golfo Aranci. On a comfortable, spacious sailing yacht you watch cliffs of Capo Figari recede, search the surface for fins and listen as the crew tunes the rig for a calm, two-hour evening passage. The sea here often throws up dolphins and bottlenose pods that cut through the wake, playful and unbothered by human company.
