## Verified facts

- The Sella del Diavolo (Devil's Saddle) is the headland of Capo Sant'Elia between Poetto beach and the centre of Cagliari; the sea in front is called the Golfo degli Angeli, the Gulf of Angels (Sardegna Turismo).
- Poetto is Cagliari's city beach, about 8 km of sand from the Devil's Saddle towards Quartu Sant'Elena (Sardegna Turismo).
- On land the Devil's Saddle path starts from Calamosca beach; the northern slope is a military zone closed to the public, so the coves below it are best seen from the sea.
- Cagliari Cruise Port has two cruise docks (480 m and 450 m) and a free shuttle bus to the port gate (Global Ports Holding).
- Most boat tours leave from the city harbor (Molo Dogana, Su Siccu, Marina di Sant'Elmo); some from Marina Piccola at the Poetto end.

## Corrections to claims found elsewhere

- The 2 to 3 hour Cagliari boat tours sail the city coast round the Devil's Saddle; they do not go to Villasimius or Chia.
- The catamaran and the sailboat list a toilet and a shower on board; the 4-swim-stop tour says it has no toilet or changing room.
- Not every tour leaves from the cruise terminal area: the Devil's Saddle rubber boat and the boat rental start at Marina Piccola.
