Itinerary
How to organize it
Start with dog beaches
Cagliari offers two very useful points for those traveling with a dog: a dog beach near the Marino Hospital and one towards Margine Rosso. They are the most immediate choices if you want to put the sea at the center of your day.
If you love adventure, go for SUP and it costs
If you love adventure and breathtaking views, in the morning you can rent a SUP for a few hours, better early when the sea is flatter, and see the Devil's Saddle and the nearby coves without complicating the logistics too much.
Monte Urpinu is the smartest green plan
The Monte Urpinu park is perfect for a walk with the dog: the pine forest creates shade, there are fountains useful for hydrating and an outdoor kiosk that accepts dogs. At the top of the hill you will also find one of the most beautiful viewpoints over Cagliari and the Gulf of Angels.
Outdoor aperitif in Marina Piccola
For an aperitif, the small port of Marina Piccola is one of the easiest and most pleasant stops. The kiosks overlooking the sea and the open atmosphere make it a very suitable solution even for those who have an animal with them.
Dog friendly dinner in the Marina district
If you want to return to the center, a good end to the day is L'Oca Bianca in Via Napoli, in the Marina district. They accept dogs and it is an interesting address especially if you want to try a very particular thin pizza.
