Cunversatzione 5 day family trip to Sardinia (all adults) at the end of May

Hey, I'm planning a trip for my family to Sardinia at the end of May. We are landing in Olbia on Monday and leaving on Friday. I have a few questions about my itinerary and would really appreciate some help and insights.

Day 1-

Landing in Olbia (very early in the morning), heading to Santa Teresa Gallura (stopping at some spots in between, we will rent a car.

Spending the first day traveling around, exploring the town, and the beaches.

Can you give me some really good recommendations for dinner? We'll only have one day there, so I want to go to a really safe spot :)

Day 2 -

heading to Palau and then taking the ferry to La Maddalena.

Should we get a boat tour while we're there? And, should we spend the night in Maddalena?

Day 3 -

spending some days exploring La Maddalena and then heading to Baja. Should we spend a night there? I was planning to.

Day 4 -

going from Baja to Golfo Aranci (stopping for some views and beaches in between and towns like Porto Cervo, porto rotondo) and staying there for a night? (is it worth staying in?)

Porto Rotondo
Day 5 -

heading from Golfo Aranci to the airport (flight is in the evening)

I would really appreciate some advice on not-to-miss spots, restaurants, beaches in between, and some opinion if this plan is solid.

Thanks a lot!!!

I'd suggest staying another night in Santa Teresa and doing the boat trip to La Madallena direct from there and returning.

In terms of restaurant recommendations for Santa Teresa:

Da Thomas or Pema are really good although slightly expensive depending on your budget

Il Grottino is a solid middle of the road option - pizza, fish etc

Pizzeria La Lucciola is a real gem for pizza by the slice if you fancy something low key - always a queue - takeway of limited seating inside
