Perched on the St. Elia promontory, Devil’s Saddle (Sella del Diavolo) is a distinctive saddle-shaped indentation that commands a panoramic view over Cagliari’s Poetto beach and the Gulf of Angels. This natural formation, one of the most striking features along the coastline, attracts hikers and kayakers eager to explore its rugged terrain. Nearby, ancient ruins hint at the area’s rich history, but the true highlight remains the breathtaking vista from the hilltop, where visitors can take in the expansive sea and the vibrant activity of the beach below.
