On a bright Mediterranean morning the catamaran slips from Su Siccu, hull whispering against the blue as limestone cliffs of the Sella del Diavolo carve the skyline. Sea and wind set the tempo; gulls wheel and the water dares you to step from deck into the clear shallows of Poetto. Photographers will find frontal views of Cagliari’s harbor, swimmers will measure salt against skin, and the small group—no more than a dozen—keeps the experience uncrowded.

On a bright Mediterranean morning the catamaran slips from Su Siccu, hull whispering against the blue as limestone cliffs of the Sella del Diavolo carve the skyline. Sea and wind set the tempo; gulls wheel and the water dares you to step from deck into the clear shallows of Poetto. Photographers will find frontal views of Cagliari’s harbor, swimmers will measure salt against skin, and the small group—no more than a dozen—keeps the experience uncrowded.
This stretch of Sardinia wears visible layers of history: Phoenician and Roman influences inland, while the Sella del Diavolo promontory earned its name from sailors who likened its profile to a saddle. Geologically the coast is compact limestone and sandstone, eroded into cliffs, caves and hidden coves; beneath the surface, posidonia meadows sustain a rich local food web that attracts fish, turtles and occasional dolphins.
The outing is a three‑hour shared catamaran departing Su Siccu near Marina di Cagliari. Expect coastal cruising past Sella del Diavolo, a dedicated stop for swimming and snorkeling off Poetto, and a light onboard aperitif of local cheeses, salami and pane carasau; a bottle of white wine or prosecco is provided to share. Snorkel gear and towels are supplied and the crew runs a safety briefing prior to water entry.
Practical planning: arrive 15–30 minutes early for boarding, bring reef‑safe sunscreen and a small waterproof bag, and pack a light windbreaker for open‑deck breeze. If you get seasick, medicate in advance and choose a mid‑ship seat. Book summer weekend slots in advance; late afternoon departures often offer the best light for photos.
