Once again this year’s VELA Cup Cala dei Sardi was a triumph of sailing, passion and fun for all: more than 40 boats entered and many crews completed the splendid course between the islands of Soffi, Mortorio and Mortoriotto, with a Mistral that provided spectacle and adrenaline from the first to the last second. A compact start, and a sustained wind for the duration of the race, made the regatta engaging for both the most ambitious crews and cruisers making their absolute debut between the buoys! In the evening, as per tradition, all together on the sea-view lawn of the Marina Cala dei Sardi to celebrate the winners, the “lucky ones” who took home the raffle prizes, and all those who made this edition unique.

Now it’s time to relive all the excitement of the regatta (organized in collaboration with Marina Cala dei Sardi and Yacht Club Cala dei Sardi) in pictures: click below and discover all the photos in the official gallery of the VELA Cup Cala dei Sardi 2025, including action at sea and smiles ashore!

The VELA Cup Cala dei Sardi is confirmed as the regatta where everyone is a protagonist: those who win, those who finish last, those who face their first competition and those who have not missed a leg in years. In addition to the regatta and the prize-giving, the spirit of contagious friendship remains above all: music, toasts and smiles chase each other until late in the sea-view garden of the Marina Cala dei Sardi. But the VELA Cup does not end here…The next event? Procida on Saturday, September 27, and then Capo d’Orlando on Saturday, October 4. We are waiting for you! Sign up below.
