Detailed itinerary

Starting from the port of Cagliari we will see during navigation.
The coast of Cagliari: view of the city from the sea with the main historical monuments that will be illustrated. There are no scheduled stops, it will be visited and described in the passage with the boat and is included in the trip.

It is the first bay that we will meet once we leave the port, due to the shallow waters we will remain at a distance from the beach but we will see the old military settlements, the historic hotel and the local "terraces" without neglecting the picturesque faron of Capo Sant'Elia , there are no stops in this area.

Immediately after Cala Mosca and the most beautiful of the bays that we will find on the route, if the sea conditions allow it we will enter this small inlet where there is a beach that can be reached or by boat wave an arduous path between the white Rocco and limestone that characterize this part of the South Coast
In this area it is possible to admire the old plant for the relaying of mussels and traces of ancient buildings from various periods of colonization in Sardinia. There are no stops at this point due to orders from the harbor master's office due to the danger of collapses from the nearby cliff.

Between Cala Fighera and the saddle of the Devil is the grotta dei colombi, a fascinating ravine at the foot of a cliff of white limestone. Legend has it that the cave of the pigeons was the last home of an unpopular count due to his tyranny in Cagliari, and I find death from hardship there.

We will support you for about an hour to be able to swim and taste a taste of typical Sardinian products. Then we will leave to return to the port.

It is a charming tourist port at the foot of the Devil's saddle on the east side, overlooking a splendid bay where the Poetto, the 11 km long city beach of Cagliari, begins.
The view is very reminiscent of a tropical island in the South Seas.
Here we will stop only if the sea did not allow us to throw again in the previous stage on the slopes of the Devil's saddle.
