The tour ends at the beautiful beach of Poetto, 6 Miles of sandy beach, crystal clear water surrounded by palm trees and trendy bars.
Cagliari's Gulf on a boat
It is possible for tourists to rent this type of boat - fast and safe - even without a nautical drivers licence and it's even possible to charter it with a skipper.
Starting from the city port, you can either choose to proceed to the South East towards Villasimius or the South West towards Pula and Chia where you will visit the most beautiful beaches in this part of the island.
It is also possible, for passionate fishermen, to organize fishing excursions.
Visit the San Benedetto's Market
If you want to feel the local everyday life, the San Benedetto Market is one of the must see places. It was open in 1957 and it soon became "the market" where every "Mamma Cagliaritana" shops for fresh local food.
Inside this two level building you will find everything from vegetables, meat, bread to seafood.
Tasting sea urchins or mussels surely is an experience not to be missed.
Water parks
There are two waterparks available close to the city: Diverland and Blufan.
