Catamarans for Excursions in La Maddalena
Comfort, Stability and Safety for Your Snorkeling in Sardinia
Catamaran Sandalia
Comfort and Vast Spaces
The flagship of the Palau Excursions fleet is the Sandalia, a prestigious Aventura Catamaran 10 Power. This vessel was chosen specifically to offer our guests maximum stability at sea and superior comfort during stops.
The Sandalia's greatest strength is its enormous space: it features two dedicated sunbathing areas, a large one at the bow and a fantastic Fly Bridge, ideal for relaxing and enjoying the Archipelago sun. Thanks to a minimum draft of just 70 cm, the Sandalia grants access to enchanting coves that are "off-limits" to other types of vessels. Finally, the huge stern platform offers an extremely easy and safe entry and exit from the water — perfect for our Snorkeling activities.

Catamaran Deep One
New 2024: Speed and Luxury
The brand-new jewel of our fleet is the Deep One (2024), an M/Y Open catamaran model Seaside 11 designed by Watergames. It stands out immediately for its exclusive full Teak Walk Around deck, which adds an unmatched touch of luxury and practicality.
Designed with a specific focus on Comfort, Speed and Manoeuvrability, the Deep One reaches a cruising speed of 20 knots, allowing us to reduce travel times and reach the most secluded coves quickly. Its spacious bow and stern sunbathing cushions, combined with a comfortable dinette with central table, guarantee maximum relaxation. It is not just a means of transport, but a true oasis of luxury at sea.
