Itinerary
Day 1
Meet at Innoi Sardinia for a guided 4‑hour e‑bike tour that visits the port, the Terramaini canal, Molentargius‑Saline Park (flamingos), Poetto beach and finishes at Calamosca.
Meet & Bike Fit — Innoi Sardinia Tourist Point
Gather at the Innoi Sardinia shop & tourist point for check‑in, helmet fitting, short safety briefing and bike setup. Guides hand out bottled water and quick route notes before departure.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 10–15 minutes early to secure lockers and get any extras (child rear seat if booked) — groups leave promptly.
- Charge your phone and bring a small power bank — guides can hold phones briefly for photos but don’t store devices long‑term.
- Light layers are best for April: cool morning but warmer coastal breeze later. Pack a windbreaker you can stash under the saddle bag.
Coastal Ride: Porto di Cagliari to Terramaini Canal
Easy-paced ride from the meeting point along the waterfront, passing the Port of Cagliari and heading toward the Terramaini canal entrance — short stops for photos and local commentary about the city’s salt‑marsh history.
Tips from local experts:
- Stick in the group’s mid-pack if you want steady photo stops but avoid leading into traffic — guides will manage pace.
- Keep helmets buckled while passing port areas; ground can be uneven near docks.
- If you brought sunglasses, put them on before the waterfront — the low April sun can glare off the water during the morning stretch.
Molentargius‑Saline Park — Flamingo & Birdwatching Stop
Guided nature stop inside Parco Naturale Molentargius‑Saline to observe flamingos, gulls and other wetland species from safe viewpoints. Guide provides naturalistic commentary and tips for bird photos and quiet observation.
Tips from local experts:
- Keep voices low and avoid sudden movements — flamingos are curious but easily spooked; use the guide’s recommended viewing spots for best sightings.
- Bring a compact telephoto or use the phone’s portrait/zoom mode — April often has active feeding flocks and good light.
- Respect fenced areas: follow guide directions and stay on paths to protect nesting/mudflat habitats; carry small hand sanitizer for after touching rental bikes or gates.
Poetto Beach Coastal Ride & Beach Picnic Lunch
Cycle the long Poetto seafront, with a relaxed group picnic lunch on the sand. Time to dip toes (optional), share snacks and swap photos; lunch is informal — the guide can suggest a quick café if you prefer a seated option.
Tips from local experts:
- April can be breezy — sit on the sheltered side of a dune or under a beach awning; bring a light picnic blanket (guides often carry a spare).
- If you want a café lunch instead, ask the guide in advance — they know local beach bars that accept group tabs and have group seating.
- Store valuables in the guide’s small group bag while swimming briefly; as friends, split costs for snacks/drinks to keep it easy and social.
Final Stretch — Cape & Viewpoint at Calamosca
Short climb to the Calamosca headland for panoramic views back across Poetto and the gulf. Guide highlights local geology and the best sunset/sundown spots for return visits — perfect group photo stop.
Tips from local experts:
- The final approach includes a short uphill on a paved path — keep a comfortable assist level on the e‑bike and ride single file on narrower sections.
- Stand together for the panoramic shot: the guide will frame a group photo with the gulf behind you; use the 2‑minute timer on phones for hands‑free group pics.
- If anyone wants a quick swim after the viewpoint, Calamosca has small pebbly coves; wear water‑friendly shoes and keep belongings in the guide’s bag if you do.
Return & Debrief — Back to Innoi Sardinia
Easy ride back to the Innoi Sardinia shop for bike return, short debrief, recommendations for local evening spots and a quick chance to buy postcards or local ceramics at the gallery.
Tips from local experts:
- Tip the guide collectively if you enjoyed the tour — small cash or card tips are appreciated and easiest when pooled.
- Ask the guide for off‑the‑beaten‑path food and nightlife tips for friends (aperitivo bars, live music venues) — they’ll suggest group‑friendly spots.
- Grab a quick souvenir from the Innoi gallery if you liked the local ceramics or maps — it helps support local guides and makes a unique travel memento.
