The boat slips away from Palau as the limestone coast shrinks into a ribbon of scrub and granite. Salt-slick air and the hum of a 10‑meter Chris Craft set the tempo; coves open like small blue rooms and the water dares you to dive in.

This is the La Maddalena Archipelago and the Marine Park of Lavezzi — a chain of wind‑sculpted granite islets between Sardinia and Corsica. Human history is light here: shepherding, smuggling and Giuseppe Garibaldi’s exile on nearby Caprera left simple stone walls and stories scattered among maquis shrubs. Geologically, the islands are ancient granite outcrops rounded by waves and wind; currents and seagrass meadows create pockets of rich marine life.
On a typical 9:00–17:00 day trip from Palau you’ll anchor in sheltered bays, don provided masks, snorkels and fins, and explore seagrass meadows where fish thread between rocks. A supervised introductory dive is available for those curious about going deeper. The craft carries a light lunch, snacks, fruits and bottled water so you can alternate between swimming and sunning on deck.
Plan around wind and swell—mornings are usually calmer. Wear reef‑safe sunscreen, secure shoes for rocky landings, and bring a dry bag for phones. If you’re sensitive to motion, take precautions before boarding. Respect the marine park: no anchoring on seagrass beds and follow instructor guidance when entering the water.
This excursion blends easy access from Olbia (about 45 minutes to Palau) with an intense half‑day of coastal exploration—ideal for snorkelers seeking clear water, rugged coastline, and a chance at a beginner dive under professional supervision.
Snorkeling masks, snorkels and fins are provided, but you may bring a personal mask for a better fit if you prefer.
Yes—there is a supervised Discover Scuba/Dive Experience led by a qualified instructor; no prior dive certification is required, though medical restrictions may apply.
Palau is roughly a 40–50 minute drive from Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport, making the meeting point easy for morning arrivals.
Tours can be canceled or rescheduled for safety in rough seas; refund or rebooking policies typically apply if canceled at least 24 hours beforehand.
