Salpa Soleil 20
Premium RIB — Our Flagship No-License Dinghy
Premium comfort, no license needed
The Salpa Soleil 20 is our flagship no-license dinghy — a 6-meter Italian-designed RIB that feels more like a private floating lounge than a rental boat. Its step-hull design cuts through waves with exceptional stability, while the massive bow sundeck with high-quality cushions gives your group the space to truly relax. Add the stainless steel bimini and onboard fresh water shower, and you have the most comfortable self-drive experience in Chia.
Your private route along the coast
Depart from Su Giudeu beach and reach Tuerredda in about 20 minutes — often voted one of Italy’s most beautiful beaches. Continue west to Capo Malfatano for world-class snorkelling, or explore the natural pools and hidden coves of Cala Zafferano. The Salpa’s smooth ride and low fuel consumption let you cover the entire South Sardinia coast comfortably, even on a half-day rental.

Common questions
Do I need a license to drive the Salpa Soleil 20?
No. Despite its 6-meter length, the Salpa Soleil 20 is equipped with a 40 HP engine, which is legal to drive without a nautical license in Italy. Anyone aged 18 or over can rent it after a quick safety briefing.
How many people can fit comfortably?
The Salpa is certified for up to 6 passengers. To ensure maximum comfort on the sundeck, we recommend groups of 4–5 adults — especially on a full-day trip.
Is fuel included in the price?
Fuel is not included. You receive the boat with a full tank and pay only for what you use. The Salpa’s step-hull design is quite fuel-efficient — expect around €25–€35 for a return trip to Tuerredda.
Where do I pick up the boat?
Departure is from Su Giudeu beach in Chia (c/o Arveskida Beach Club), Viale Spartivento 60, Domus de Maria. We’ll meet you at the beach for the briefing and get you on the water in about 10 minutes.
Does the Salpa Soleil 20 have a shower?
Yes — the Salpa is one of the few no-license boats in Chia with an onboard fresh water deck shower. You can rinse off after every swim without waiting to get back to shore.
What’s the difference between the Salpa and the Selva Marine?
The Salpa Soleil 20 is our premium comfort option — bigger sundeck, steel bimini, deck shower, and a more stable step-hull. The Selva Marine 5.70 is lighter, more nimble, and more affordable. Both are no-license and perfect for exploring Chia’s coast.
What beaches can I reach?
From Su Giudeu you can reach Cala Cipolla in 5 minutes, Tuerredda in about 20 minutes, Capo Malfatano in 25 minutes, and Cala Zafferano in roughly one hour. Check our itinerary map for all suggested routes.
