About this tour
A 4-hour shared boat tour departing from Marina di Sant'Elmo that threads along Cagliari's southern coastline, stopping at secluded anchorages for swimming and snorkelling. You'll visit Cala Bernat, Cala Mosca, Cala Fighera and Sella del Diavolo, with time to float in translucent waters before returning to a spread of regional nibbles and cold drinks aboard. The skipper navigates; you relax and explore at a gentle pace.

What to expect
You'll board a sturdy dinghy at Sant'Elmo marina and head south along the coast with your skipper. Expect three or four stops where you can swim, snorkel or simply drift in the bay. Water is warm and shallow near the coves—perfect for exploring submerged rock formations. Between swims, the boat provides shade, music plays softly, and you dry off. Towards the end, everyone gathers on deck for fresh local cheese, cured meats, and a cold drink whilst anchored off Poetto.
Good to know
Bring your own swimsuit, towel and sunscreen. The tour suits all fitness levels—you can skip snorkelling and just swim if preferred. Toilet and shower on board. Public transport nearby if you need it. Small shared groups mean you'll meet other travellers; book ahead in summer.
