With its wild coves, sculpted granite formations, and unspoiled archipelagos, Sardinia offers a premier sailing destination where chartering a boat truly feels like a back-to-basics experience. Whether you’re staying in a villa on the Costa Smeralda, wish to explore the hidden coves of the Maddalena Archipelago, or want to sail to the cliffs of the Gulf of Orosei, we’ll tailor your sailing trip to your specific interests and desires for discovery.
We offer you an exclusive selection of high-end motorboats, carefully selected and meticulously maintained by the Santarelli Marine shipyard. As a family-owned business for three generations, our knowledge of the Sardinian coastline and our warm hospitality ensure that every moment you spend at sea is truly exceptional.
What kind of boat should you rent in Sardinia?
Your sailing trip in Sardinia is unique to you, which is why our fleet includes a variety of boat categories for rent—from luxury motorboats to sporty RIBs—to perfectly accommodate your group size and your preferred stops along the way.
Rigid-hulled inflatable boats and open boats, with or without a skipper
Looking for a more active and dynamic way to explore the Sardinian coastline? Our RIBs and open boats combine elegance and performance for a full-day or half-day outing.
These models are particularly popular among villa residents who want a smooth way to travel by water to reach a secluded cove or a gourmet dining spot, from Cannigione to Cala di Volpe.
Extremely agile, they allow you to get as close as possible to the shore and navigate through the narrowest passages of the archipelagos.
Depending on your sailing experience, you can take the helm for a self-guided trip, with the freedom to set sail wherever your heart desires, or enjoy a peaceful exploration of the most beautiful anchorages with a professional skipper.
Yacht with crew
To experience a moment of stillness where the only thing that matters is contemplation.
That’s exactly what we offer aboard our luxury yachts in Sardinia, with a captain and crew dedicated to ensuring your comfort and well-being.
A motor yacht charter is the perfect way to discover Porto Cervo, explore the ports of the Costa Smeralda, or spend time at anchor in the crystal-clear waters of the Maddalena, from the island of Caprera to the coast of Alghero.
Our yachts are equipped with state-of-the-art stabilizers for excellent seaworthiness, cutting-edge navigation systems, and spacious interiors. For your leisure time, a wide selection of recreational equipment is available on board: high-speed tenders for shore excursions, jet skis, underwater thrusters, paddleboards, and snorkeling gear to explore the Sardinian seabed.

Sailing around Sardinia
Renting a boat in Sardinia is the best way to immerse yourself in the raw beauty of the Mediterranean. The northern coastline, fringed with pink granite and deep waters, is home to some of the most beautiful anchorages in the inland sea. The Maddalena Archipelago, with its islands of Budelli, Spargi, and Caprera, offers exceptionally clear waters and unspoiled natural havens. Its shallow channels are ideal for swimming stops as well as wind-sheltered anchorages.
As you travel along the Costa Smeralda, you’ll discover a succession of hidden coves and prestigious ports, from Porto Cervo to Porto Rotondo, accessible only by sea for a truly authentic experience. Further south, the Gulf of Orosei reveals a wilder side of the island, with its limestone cliffs plunging into the water and its caves opening out onto the sea.
