Daily excursions to the sea grottos of Capo Palinuro from the port of Palinuro continuously from 9:00 to 18:00. Duration 1h 30'.

 

Itinerary:

The Blue grotto owes its name to the extraordinary effect produced by the sunlight which filters inside from an underground passage situated at the depth of about 8mts. The result being a spectacular play of light and colours.

The Blood grotto is characterized by striking blood-red markings which, winding up the inside walls, reflect onto the sea water giving it a reddish colouring.

The Sulphureous grotto is the maximum expression of the hydrothermal phenomenon of the Capo Palinuro. Situated in the Cala Fetente sulphidric acid vapours are released which give the area its characteristic sulphureous odour.

The Monks grotto is rich in stalagmite formations which evolving, in the time resemble friars in their monks habits.

The cove of Buon Dormire, ancient and suggestive home of mermaids, concludes our extraordinary itinerary where an enchanting, refreshing swim will fix in your minds for ever this unforgettable day.
