Antonio arranged for us to go on his speedboat, to some amazing spots around Tavolara which are great for snorkelling. In our 4 hour ride we stopped at roughly 3-4 spots which had some great waters and views. The boat is comfortable and Antonio our guide is great at handling it. We were offered some refreshments on the boat as well. Snorkelling equipment is provided, but you could also use your own. We usually stopped at a depth between 3-6 metres, so be sure to be comfortable with that before signing up. Also, it can get hot for some, since it is an open boat out on the sea.

Unique experience, to discover heavenly places and fish of all kinds. Antonio skipper very nice and easy going who accompanies you along the entire route and shows you what you are going to visit. Snorkeling equipment on board and typical Sardinian aperitif in crystal clear waters. Within everyone's reach. To do at least once in a lifetime.

Antonio is a very personable and funny guide who made the trip special. We stopped at three spots with turquoise water to snorkel and enjoy the view over snacks. With the variety of fish we had hoped for a little more, but that was well balanced by a fast-paced fun boat trip. Overall, very recommendable!
