Departure from the port of Su Siccu in Cagliari. Follow the directions
Sailing in the Gulf of Cagliari towards Capo Sant’Elia

Return journey to the Port of Su Siccu
*The itinerary may be subject to change, depending on weather conditions. Any changes will be promptly communicated 12 hours before the excursion or at the time of embarkation.
Description
The excursion starts with an educational moment. How to go to sea, safety rules, basic sailing information, activities and behavior on board. Afterwards, Paolo and participants compile the navigation plan together, planning the route according to the weather conditions. The integration between sailors is quick and facilitated by Paolo’s patience, friendliness and competence.
Having left the moorings, Merak will unfurl its sails in the Golfo degli Angeli, skirting the Capo Sant’Elia promontory and its multicolored cliffs until reaching Cala Fighera where, having dropped anchor, one can swim in crystal-clear emerald-green waters.
The Sella del Diavolo (The Devil’s Saddle), which owes its name to an ancient popular legend, is a promontory rich in traces of frequentation since the Neolithic period, with high white cliffs, fragrant Mediterranean scrub, and home to seagulls and cormorants.
Navigation then proceeds towards the Poetto beach. Eight kilometers of beach with fine white sand and crystal-clear, shallow water for tens of meters, ideal for swimming and snorkeling. The navigation is framed by an invigorating dive into the sea, infinitesimal shades of blue separating sea and sky, the chattering of the waves, the circling of seagulls and cormorants, the choreography of flamingos, the leaping of dolphins and sometimes the flight over the waves of Luna Rossa.

Der Trip hat mehr als fünf Sterne verdient. Paolo kümmert sich rührend um seine Gäste und sorgt für ein unvergesslichen Trip.
Leider nicht so wie beschrieben. Höhlen wurde überhaupt nicht angeguckt. Außer kurz aus der Entfernung. Ein versprochener Strand zum anlegen fand auch nicht statt. Schnorcheln war auch überhaupt nicht vorhanden.... read more Generell sehr wenig Leistung im Vergleich zu dem was beschrieben wurde. Schade. Die Aussicht und das tolle Meer konnten wir vom Boot trotzdem sehr genießen. Aber definitiv nicht nochmal. Außerdem ist zu sagen das wir bestimmt 5 Stunden oder mehr auf dem Wasser waren. Man ist fast verhungert und da es nur 4 richtige Sitzplätze gibt tat nach einiger Zeit das sitzen auf dem Boot extrem weh.
Trotzdem ist Paolo sehr nett und erklärt vieles zu Sardinien.

I cannot say enough positive things about this experience.

He offered us drinks, there is an area to store things, he made the entire experience so much fun. He’s a wizard at predicting the weather, and somehow managed to sail us in between two massive rain systems for a solid four hours. We didn’t get a single drop on us, but could see it all around us in the distance! Super impressive! Even though it wasn’t sunny, he found a safe place for us to swim which was so kind! The water was warm & he never let the boat get too far away. He is fast to communicate, kind, and a funny guy! I’d sail with Paolo any day! Book this!

Want to organize a special event?
A day on a sailing boat is a perfect solution for special or more intimate events, such as a birthday or graduation party. The boat will be booked exclusively, and in the case of a surprise celebration, a candlelit lunch or dinner served on deck can be added.
