The boat slips away from Poetto as the city recedes and the promontory of Sella del Diavolo—Devil’s Saddle—rises like a low, craggy spine against the sky. Salt spray dares you forward; the boat’s bow cushion and shaded cockpit promise easy comfort as the captain picks a chain of coves for swims and stops.

The boat slips away from Poetto as the city recedes and the promontory of Sella del Diavolo—Devil’s Saddle—rises like a low, craggy spine against the sky. Salt spray dares you forward; the boat’s bow cushion and shaded cockpit promise easy comfort as the captain picks a chain of coves for swims and stops.
Geology here is compact: Carbonate cliffs and jagged sandstone shelves meet clear, shallow seabeds where Posidonia meadows ripple under sunlight. The headland has a crisp cultural footprint — a legend-heavy name and old military batteries that speak to Cagliari’s strategic role in Mediterranean trade and defense. Onboard, a small tasting of Sardinian cold cuts and cheeses with prosecco or beer gives a quick, authentic taste of local flavor between snorkel stops.
Expect three hours of relaxed cruising with multiple anchoring points for snorkeling and swimming; the operator provides masks and basic snorkel gear. Sea conditions on the southern side can push a little chop into the coves, so short swims and ladder access from the boat are the norm. Timing mid-morning or late afternoon avoids the hottest sun and sees calmer water.
Practical pointers: bring reef-safe sunscreen, a towel, water shoes, and a light layer for the breeze. If you want clearer visibility, bring your own mask and stick to the shallower bays where Posidonia beds and small fish are most visible. This is an accessible, social outing that pairs easy sea time with local bites — ideal for a half-day escape from the city.
Yes—masks and basic snorkel gear are included, though bringing your own mask improves fit and visibility.
