The nearby beaches are reachable by boats Cala Formaggio, Praia Longa to the south of this beach are of great charm and beauty. A short walk will bring you to their pebby beaches. One stretch of coastline of incomparable beauty is the one that runs from Porto di Ponente as far as Capo Secco, with a series of spectacular inlets and promontories. After the Testa Grossa promontory, you come to a grotto called the Grotta del Cavallo, which a small boat can actually sail into. As you continue your tour of the island, you will see the slopes of the primordial volcano, the lighthouse and a few houses in the area of the disused landing-stage at Gelso. You make your return south of Porto di Levante, passing by the volcanic crater on your way. | |
