We had a fantastic day could not fault one thing. Marco was a very skilled driver and guide I recommend to all.

Itinerary
The beach has a half-moon shape and is characterised by fine golden sand, turquoise waters and small caves carved into the rock. It is located in a cove carved between limestone cliffs at the mouth of the river that forms a green lagoon behind the beach.
A jewel of the Baunei coast and of the whole of Sardinia, proclaimed a National Monument, it is a true paradise on earth.
A small cove with waters of a distinctive turquoise colour that make it resemble a swimming pool. Its waters are so clear and transparent that boats appear to be floating on air
The tour will depart from Cala Gonone and will involve an hour and a half sailing along the coast of the Gulf of Orosei with several stops including one at the Cove Ziu Santoru for diving and snorkelling from the boat fo about 45 minutes
Cala Mariolu is one of the most beautiful beaches in the Gulf of Orosei, famous for its white pebbles, turquoise sea and impressive limestone cliffs. Reachable mainly by boat or trekking, it offers a unique natural setting perfect for relaxation and swimming.

Perfect day with a very experienced boat captain. Beautiful scenery totally worth it! The check in was seamless. Highly recommend!
Fantastic boat trip seeing the coast our captain took us to amazing special coves & swimming spots. Take your own lunch as a long day 😊
Perfect experience! Thank you!
We had a great trip. Our skipper was knowledgeable and very skilled. We saw all of the Gulf of Orosei highlights throughout the course of a very pleasurable afternoon. Our kids, ages 5& 7, enjoyed the experience greatly. We stopped at the main beaches, explored caves, and had a number of swimming stops. Highly recommend.
This is an amazing trip! If I could give it 10 stars I would. The scenery is stunningly beautiful and our lovely captain, Roberto, seemed to truly enjoy showing us all the gorgeous coves, beaches and caves. (Ten years ago I took a big boat trip along this coast. This one on the dinghy was so much better because the dinghy could get to so many places.) Roberto was friendly, competent and safe. An all around great adventure. I highly recommend it!
Full day on the beautiful water exploring beaches, coves and grottoes. Bring your own lunch/beverages and hat/spf. Wonderful captain- so friendly and welcoming. They even agreed to let us put our small suitcases in the office so we didn’t need to leave them in our parked car. What service!!!
Many fantastic views at this tour. Some of the beaches, such as piscine de venere, are not forbidden for visitors, it you can see or land on the main ones
We had a great time on this boat trip! It is a small boat with no bathroom or food or water provided…other than a small sweet and glass of wine at the end…so bring water and lunch/snacks. We stopped at some amazing beaches only reachable by boat, where we were able to get off and stay for about an hour and a half. We also stopped at other swimming spots where the water was some of the most amazing colors of blue we had ever seen. Also need to bring own snorkel equipment.
Excellent day! Our guide was wonderful! Many stops at the most beautiful Coves and beaches. Book this tour!
Overall beautiful trip! Our Skipper was fine. He was a stickler about certain things ( i.e. I didn't put the float noodle back with the others & I got a lecture lol)
Our experience was amazing, Gianni, our skipper was very proffessional and had lots of interesting facts about the nature surrounding us. The beaches and the different shades of blue are the reason somebody should visit this island. Would totally recommend, a wonderful experience overall
The advantage of this trip is that there are not many people in the boat with you. It totally exceeded my expectations. We stopped at two wonderful beaches being given enough time to enjoy them. Besides, we visited numerous spots in the sea nearby the coast for bathing with stunning clear water and were given the masks for snorkeling. We even got to see the sunken ship in one of the spots. Overall, fantastic experience, but if you travel in the summer, manage your exposure to the sun wisely. Sunscreen is a must for this trip.
A wonderful experience. Gianni our boat pilot was excellent - professional and accomodating. The sights were breathtaking. The aqua blue water and sea caves are unforgettable with lots of swimming involved during the day tour. We enjoyed mixing with other tourists from all around the world. Be prepared for sun exposure and bring plenty of water. If you're coeliac - bring your own lunch. Highly recommended for singles, couples or families. Maybe bring your own well fitting swim goggles or masks as there is lots to see under the surface. Do it.
Amazing way to experience the Baunei coast. The boat is fast and can get to places the bigger boats can’t and it drops you off to swim at really nice secluded spots away from the crowds. The boat comes with free snorkelling equipment too which was awesome as the water was crystal blue and full of so many fish. Shout out to Stefano our tour guide for being such a chill and outstanding host.
Brilliant! But once again busy and people with there own dinghy blocking off. A really good day out. Well worth it.
The tour surpassed our expectations. From the moment we arrived on the boat our Captain Gianni took care of us, making sure everyone had an incredible tour. He made sure everyone was safe but was also super light hearted and gave great updates on the locations we visited. He timed the arrival to various caves, grottos and beaches perfectly often avoiding any crowds. We made it to Cala Luna beach early with only a handful of people there. Then we went deep into a number of caves and grottos and he expertly navigated us in and out safely. We had the chance to swim in no less than 7 spots each with unique views and experiences. Honestly this was the best tour I think we've done. Do yourself a favour and book a tour with Blue Green Best.
Highly recommend and if it’s possible ask to go if Gianni! Bravissimo! The tour took around 5 hours with loads of stops to jump and swimming around the beach and in special spots where you only can reach by boat!
Amazing beaches and caves, trip with a guide Gianni was more than we expected. This is must do trip in Sardinia for sure! I more than recommend it and ask for a guide Gianni 😃
Best way to explore the beautiful Gulf of Orosei and its secluded beaches and caves. Our captain was very friendly and funny, explained all the places in multiple languages (italian,english and spanish) and also received some local treats and red wine as refreshments. Tour was perfectly organized with stops at the wonderful beaches. Also snorkelling equipment was provided. Highly recommended experience!
A formidable experience touring the coves of the Gulf and disembarking at Cala Luna and Cala Mariolu to take advantage of their beaches. Also entering several caves and swimming in 2 of them, as well as, without disembarking, we were able to swim and snorkel in front of Cala Goloritze. A highly recommended tour.
Beautiful excursion with very pretty spots and majestic destinations :) It's a shame that the guide didn't want to lend us the snorkeling masks that were on the boat... Furthermore, it was written that the guide spoke French when he only spoke Italian and English.
Beautiful trip with top guide / mate Carlito along beautiful coast of Gulf of Orosei with good explanation about nature and origins! Beautiful beaches with nice snorkeling, but busy in August.
There were 12 of us in the dinghy we used, and there was plenty of space on board. There is the possibility of also bringing a cooler bag for drinks, as well as food, since there is nothing else on board. For those who snorkel, bring all your equipment, fins and masks; there is little to nothing on board. I recommend an action cam with a waterproof case for videos and photos. The trip is pleasant and you visit all the characteristic spots, entering the caves with the dinghy. Plenty of swimming and diving, and a stop for a lunch break of a couple of hours at Cala Mariolu. On some beaches, there are also bar and restaurant services. The trip concluded in the manner and within the times expected. A special round of applause goes to Gianni, our skipper. A kind, helpful, and above all professional person who made us have a pleasant day. Undoubtedly a positive experience!
A super beautiful day on the water where we could explore all the bays, some even from the inside. The day was enjoyable, and the guide provided us with a lot of information about everything and made several swimming stops. It was excellent all around and was fun.
The landscape is very beautiful, the crystal-clear water, we visited all the places described, the only thing we didn't like was that we only stopped for 15 minutes at Cala Luna, and there was no one there!! And then we stopped for 2 hours at Cala Mariolu when it was packed with people!! That didn't make sense to us; we could have made better use of our time by distributing it more equitably.
Fine and nice trip all spoke the skipper not a word English and also gave little or no explanation for the rest. Boarding point and booked boat company was unclear but with contact with TripAdvisor everything turned out fine.
Very good excursion. It lasted a few hours less because we had to come back earlier because of the weather, but we could see the main attractions. They contacted us the day before to coordinate everything.
Great day All stops were made, aperitif and cakes too. The spots were very nice but crowded but that was predictable. Our skipper was great we had a pleasant day
Great ride on rubber boat. You should be reasonably fit and able to swim well. Lots of bathing stops and grottoes. 2 longer shore trips were there, Cala Luna and Cala Mariolu. Thanks to Gianni our Capitano.
We made a wonderful excursion by rubber boat, departing from Cala Gonone, to visit the beaches of the Gulf of Orosei. We went to the Daymar agency. Departure at 10 am return at 5 pm All very kind from receptionists to the legendary Marco our super captain. Rib with a rigid bottom, comfortable, very spacious and spotless. Nice background music. Stop with descent to three beaches, and two stops for swimming. Everything organized at best to visit beautiful places to take your breath away!!!! Council
Very nice day beautiful visit Skipper very friendly Only flat too expensive for the service No preview on the boat despite the announcement and no Francophone guide as planned I request a partial refund of the service!!!!
Excellent visit to the most beautiful beaches of Sardinia and the coast of the Gulf of Orosei! Thank you for this exceptional moment! The navigator was top and even offered us the typical Sardinian aperitif on the boat
I can only recommend the trip! He's absolutely worth the money! We had a wonderful day, the skipper Stefan is totally nice and showed us a lot and explained. He was very responsive to us and let us swim in great places. We have seen fantastic beaches and caves. There was sufficient bathing time. Tip : Be sure to send the ticket by email. I forgot about that and there are a lot of operators in the port. I didn’t have the company name and had to ask through a Whats app.
Gianni our very prepared and nice skipper, a real sea wolf! Great skill and professionalism. Beautiful gulf coast is a trip absolutely to do, we came especially from Olbia! Consigliatissimo! Thanks for everything💙
Clear water to dream of. Careful and punctual Guide. A crush. Thank you for a wonderful day. To be redone
+ many stops + the guide could drive the boat - says that snorkeling equipment is included, it was not included - says that the guide speaks English, but he did not, we felt left out when the guide spoke Italian to the others on the boat. Didn't understand a question I had. - would stay 2 hours on any beach, but stayed 1 hour on all. - changed the time from 9:30 to 9:00 the day before, even though I wrote that we needed the half hour when we had 2 hours driving.
