Behind every authentic experience, there’s an intention. Sardinia on board was not born by chance, but as the result of a life choice: made by Fabio and Claudia, two dreamers who decided to leave unfulfilling jobs to live Sardinia in a different way. Embracing the sea as their home and nature as their constant companion, they transformed their passion for SUP and trekking into a new way of experiencing the island. Every tour tells a story of a deep love for the environment and a daily commitment to sustainable tourism.
What happens when two people decide to live according to what they truly love?
Fabio and Claudia answered this question with a courageous act: abandoning the security of a stable job to chase their dream. They met, just like the waves and the wind meet in Sardinia, under the Maestrale, the wind that blows strongly on the island, shaping it and inspiring bold choices. A meeting that gave rise to a shared decision: to follow their passion for the sea, nature, and sustainable tourism that reflects their authentic way of living the island.
Fabio, a surfer since young age, has always felt the sea as a second home, a place where every wave becomes a life lesson. Claudia, with her free spirit, was looking for something more than just a job: she wanted to live Sardinia in its purest form. And so, when they met, they immediately realized their dream could become a reality—a dream that would lead them to create Sardinia on board. They left behind a secure life to embrace uncertainty, driven by a new energy to build something that truly reflected their passion for Sardinia and authentic tourism. Their meeting was not just a personal turning point, but a push towards a project that led them to redefine the concept of tourism, rooting it in their values and vision of the island.
The challenges were many. From managing financial difficulties to the constant fear of failure, to the uncertainty of a path never traveled before. But the desire to turn their dream into reality, combined with their deep love for Sardinia, fueled their perseverance. Today, seven years after founding Sardinia on board, the project has not only become a reality but is continually growing, offering experiences that allow people to discover Sardinia in its most genuine aspect, respecting its natural and cultural heritage.
Fabio and Claudia are not just entrepreneurs. They are guides, custodians of an island they love and wish to share with those who want to experience it in the most authentic way. Every excursion with them is not just a tour, but an immersion in the beauty of Sardinia—a beauty that can only be truly appreciated when you learn to listen to it and respect it. The goal is not to show the island but to make it live, breathe, and feel as only those who were born here can.
Unique experiences in Sardinia: the sustainable mission of Sardinia On Board
Every activity offered by Sardinia on board is born from the direct experience of the founders, who have spent years exploring the island with curiosity and respect, perfecting each route with care. Fabio and Claudia, now certified environmental guides, are the first to test every tour before proposing it to the public. From SUP to dolphin watching, to trekking in the most hidden spots, they don’t just guide visitors, they invite them on an emotional and educational journey, where every corner of Sardinia tells a story.
This year, in addition to the SUP tours, Sardinia on board expands its offer with sustainable land-based excursions. The new trekking routes, developed in collaboration with other local entities, offer the opportunity to explore the island from a different perspective: the mountains, hidden trails, and breathtaking views, away from the crowds. Sustainability is not just a value for Fabio and Claudia, but the foundation on which every aspect of their project is built.
The experiences are designed to leave a mark: not only in the hearts of those who participate but also in the protection of the environment. Every excursion is designed to minimize the impact on the island and includes moments of awareness about local biodiversity and the importance of preserving these extraordinary places. Fabio and Claudia offer more than just tours—they provide opportunities to learn, be moved, and contribute, with small gestures, to the preservation of the most authentic Sardinia.
