    Your boat tour in Cagliari starts from Molo Sant’Elmo. Whether you have been picked up at the exit of the Cagliari cruise terminal or have reached the meeting point on your own, the surprises may begin right away: as you leave the harbour, it is quite common to spot groups of dolphins swimming in the waters of the Gulf of Angels.
