THE GROTTO OF CALA ROTONDA
At the exit from Cala Rotonda, a charming pathway that provides access to a cave (through alternating polychrome and widely varied passages), can be found on the right hand side. Light effects, semi-dark chambers, colourful pinnacles, and spectacular rock faces provide a thrilling experience for the onlooker. The entrance to the cave can be found at a depth of about 6-8 metres. The area is also of interest for freedivers.
