We are on the promontory of Capo Ceraso, a small peninsula overlooking the Gulf of Olbia in a crystal clear sea full of natural life.
The view from here stands out from Capo Figari, up to the magnificent Tavolara, an island of dolomitic limestone.
Capo Ceraso represents the northern limit of the marine protected area of Tavolara that preserves its charm and biodiversity and is covered by vegetation rich in the main tree varieties of the Mediterranean area such as the wild olive tree, the holm oak, the cork oak, the mastic tree, the cistus, the heather that grow luxuriant among the pink granite rocks that we will find along the entire coastal strip.
And after providing you with wetsuits, harnesses, helmets, backpacks, masks and watertight bins we prepare to walk.
For this experience you will need to bring:
closed rock, trail or trekking shoes, but not sandals or slippers.
swimsuit.
spare clothes.
towel.
2 liters of water each and some snacks if you want.
The route is 2.5 km in total for a slight difference in altitude of 219m, the path is not very challenging but in some places uneven and rocky, good physical shape and not suffering from vertigo or dizziness are required.
the estimated duration is about 3-4 hours.
We will cross historic paths that lead to the disused military lookout of Punta Maladrommì (219 m.a.s.l.) from which, until the Second World War, a garrison of soldiers controlled the naval and air traffic of the most important part of north-east Sardinia, Gallura.
Once we reach the lookout we continue on a path that takes us to a panoramic point, here we put on the harnesses and helmets and after a short briefing the 30-meter rope descent begins that allows us to overcome the steepest rocky strip and reach the rocks from which we jump into the sea.
Finally in the water, we find shelter from the summer heat and do snorkeling, among fish, anemones, sea urchins and shells we can appreciate the amount of life that the sea offers, we get out of the water for a moment and walk and jumping from one rock to another, we first climb the top of the islet and after a short break we reach the great dive of about 8 meters that will make us return to the water. We continue along the coast and swim along the water channels between the rocks until we reach the Capo Ceraso beach where after a few steps we find the cars.
LET'S GO COASTEERING!
