A day by boat from Cala Gonone southwards, with swims in coves, to see Cala Goloritzé from the water; €80 per adult in 2026.

What it is
A whole day by boat from Cala Gonone southwards, skirting the limestone cliffs of the Supramonte as far as Cala Goloritzé, the cove with the rock needle. On the way the boat stops at several coves for swimming. It is the way to see the farthest coves of the Gulf of Orosei without walking for hours through the hills or taking the helm yourself.
It is run by the Nuovo Consorzio Trasporti Marittimi Cala Gonone, the village's boatmen's consortium, with a ticket office opposite the quay.
The route
The boat leaves the Cala Gonone quay and sails south close to the coast. It passes the area of the Grotta del Bue Marino and Cala Luna, continues towards Cala Sisine and the coves of Baunei, and reaches Cala Goloritzé. The order of stops and the time at each cove depend on the day, the sea and the boat: the ticket office confirms them when you buy.
Bear in mind that at Cala Goloritzé, a natural monument, motorboats cannot come within 200 metres of the shore or land. From the boat you see it head-on; to set foot on its beach you have to walk down the trail from the Golgo plateau.
2026 prices
According to the consortium's fares:

Mini crociera nel Golfo: €80 adults and €40 for ages 3 to 8.
Mini-cruise with a visit to the Grotta del Bue Marino: €90 and €40, plus entry to the cave (€10.50 in spring and autumn, €12.50 from June to September).
Minicrociera Exclusive: €110 and €55, from 15 June to 15 October.

Children under 3 do not pay and from age 9 the adult fare is charged. If you leave from La Caletta or Orosei, further north, there is another mini-cruise, on the motor vessel Imperatrice, for €68 in June, July and September and €73 in August.
Times and season
The 2026 season runs from 27 March to 31 October. The mini-cruises leave every hour in the morning and the return depends on the departure time. In low season the 10:00 and 11:00 departures are guaranteed. The ticket office announces the exact times each day: drop by the afternoon before.
In strong sea or wind the route may be shortened or suspended.
What to bring
Swimsuit, towel, high-factor sun protection and a cap: on deck you spend many hours in the sun. Bring water and food, because you cannot count on finding facilities at the coves. Water shoes for the pebble coves and a layer for the return, when it gets cool on the boat. If you get seasick, take something before setting out.
With children
It is a long day for small children, although the swimming stops make it bearable. If it is their first boat trip, try the shorter boat to the Grotta del Bue Marino and Cala Luna first. Ages 3 to 8 pay half.
Alternatives
If you want to stop wherever you fancy, the no-licence dinghy covers the same coast at your own pace. And if you prefer the mountains, the Gola di Gorropu is half an hour away by car.

## Consejos

### Buy the day before
In summer the boats fill up; at the ticket office they also tell you the next day's times.

### Sit on the right on the way out
Sailing south, the coast is on the right of the boat: find a seat on that side.

### Do not expect to land at Goloritzé
Motorboats cannot come within 200 metres. It is seen from the water.
