Ecosport Sardinia is an adventure outfitter based in Olbia, Sardegna, specializing in guided sea experiences across the northeastern coast of Sardinia. The company operates kayak and boat tours that explore protected marine areas including Tavolara–Punta Coda Cavallo Marine Park and the La Maddalena archipelago. Activities include sunrise and sunset guided kayak trips, morning excursions for snorkeling, and private boat charters for dolphin watching and coastal exploration.
Professional guides lead small groups and provide all required equipment: sea kayaks, life jackets, snorkeling gear, and safety briefings. Private options are available for families, couples, or small groups wanting a bespoke itinerary on a sundeck boat or a private motor launch. Scenic highlights on featured trips include Proratora Island, Testa del Polpo beach, Capo Coda Cavallo bay, and Capo Figari.
Ecosport Sardinia emphasizes safety and local knowledge: guides are trained in sea navigation and first aid, routes are chosen for conditions and participant ability, and environmentally respectful practices are encouraged during snorkeling and beach stops. Guests can expect local touches such as Sardinian aperitifs featuring regional cheeses and carasau bread, Italian coffee on the beach, and fresh fruit after swims.
Bookings can accommodate up to six guests on private boat tours; group kayak tours are sized for comfortable guidance and support. With a focus on authentic coastal experiences, Ecosport Sardinia provides accessible, professionally guided sea adventures from Olbia for visitors seeking active nature-based tours. Seasonal availability depends on weather; advanced booking is recommended to secure preferred dates and private options for many travelers.
