Setting sail from the scenic Mare e Rocce Beach in the coastal area of Pittulongu (Olbia), you'll journey towards Figarolo Island aboard an inflatable boat. This short trip takes you to an aquaculture facility that, along with the natural allure of the area, attracts a plethora of seabirds and bottlenose dolphins.

If fortune favours, you might even witness their playful jumps and acrobatics.Guided by an expert marine biologist, you'll gain fascinating insights into the world of these aquatic mammals.
