Cagliari Half-Day Sailing Boat Tour Along the Gulf of Angels

Sail the southern Sardinian coastline, discover hidden coves, and let the Mediterranean breeze guide you.


This Cagliari sailing tour takes you along one of Italy's most scenic southern coastlines, combining the thrill of open water with the ease of a guided, skipper-led voyage aboard a Bavaria 44 sailing boat. From historic watchtowers to crystalline snorkeling spots, the Gulf of Angels reveals its best kept secrets from the deck of a sailboat.

Departing from the city marina, the route traces the Golfo degli Angeli past landmarks including the Cala Bernat cove, the Prezzemolo tower, and the weathered ruins of the Sant'Ignazio fortress. Each stop along this stretch of coast offers a window into the layered history and natural richness of southern Sardinia.

The journey continues toward the Sant'Elia lighthouse and includes anchoring at the calm waters of Calamosca and Cala Fighera. The tour concludes near the iconic Poetto beach, set below the striking rocky promontory known as the Sella del Diavolo, or Devil's Saddle.

With four to five swimming stops scheduled throughout the route, guests can snorkel, swim, or simply relax on deck with a glass of Prosecco. The Bavaria 44 is equipped with two bathrooms, an awning, a shower, and full safety equipment, making the experience comfortable for all levels of sea-goer.
