Navigation Tips & Weather
Before booking your experience, we always recommend checking the weather forecast. South Sardinia is famous for its winds. The Mistral (NW) generally allows for safe navigation along our suggested Chia boat itineraries, while the Sirocco (SE) might make the sea choppier. You can check the local sea conditions on reliable sites like Windfinder Chia to plan the safest day.
Eco-Friendly Boating in Chia
When exploring the coast following our Chia boat itineraries, please remember that we operate in a pristine environment. Anchoring on Posidonia (seagrass) is prohibited to protect the ecosystem. Always use sandy patches for anchoring, especially in Tuerredda and Zafferano.
