Southern Sardinia, europe’s first sustainable destination, let’s discover it on board a boat

South Sardinia was proclaimed in 2016 by the European Commission the “First sustainable destination in Europe” for tourism and the environment.

Proposing a model of sustainable tourism means preparing an experience dedicated to the protection of the environment and local identities.

The “winner” area is basically the southern coastal side of the Sardinian “quadrilateral”, the one around Cagliari, between Chia and Costa Rei: less renowned than other areas of the island, but fascinating and sometimes wild. The south coast is heterogeneous and between the Gulf of Cagliari and Oristano there is the largest plain of the island, the Campidano. The coasts are less jagged and there are numerous long stretches of sand. Not only that, the south also reserves a lot of history and culture with Cagliari rich in churches and historic buildings.

A new perspective to experience Sardinia: rent a boat

What better way to see and experience this island than on board a boat? We recommend renting a Catamaran, a boat that best suits this type of coast.

The advantages of renting a catamaran are many: possibility to reach many unspoiled places, and therefore away from mass tourism, enjoy nature exclusively to regenerate and enjoy the luxury of swimming in a fabulous sea.

To benefit from all this you must always be respectful of the environment and have a conscious attitude. There are many gestures we can do to safeguard it.

Small gestures to save the planet

It is not said that to spend a holiday as sustainable as possible you must necessarily visit the countries of Northern Europe or settle for a backpacker model holiday. Also in Italy the concept of Eco-sustainable holiday is increasingly felt, which is why more and more people ask us to rent a catamaran complete with solar panels.

Renting a catamaran with solar panels allows you to be autonomous as much as possible and therefore stay in navigation longer, away from the noisy, expensive and crowded summer ports. On board, energy is consumed to illuminate, to cool and preserve food, to power navigation instruments. Just to give you some basic information, the big consumers of electricity are the anchor windlass, the autoclave, the watermaker and the radar.

Autonomous diesel or gasoline generators are obviously powerful, effective and in some circumstances indispensable. However, these energy sources have the defect of being polluting and noisy. For this reason, at least as an addition, boats equipped with solar panels, quieter and less polluting, are increasingly in demand.
