Since the 1950s, Cala Gonone's main attraction was the Sea Ox Cave. Since then it has been admired by millions of tourists.
The queen of this cave was indeed the “sea ox”: this is what the popular imagination called the monk seal because of its awkward shape and mild behaviour.
Today visitors who come to the cave on our boats can access the southern branch and along an easy walkway find themselves admiring one of the most beautiful and famous caves in Italy. The tour inside takes about an hour during which expert guides are on hand to provide historical and scientific information about the cave and the fauna that inhabited it.
At the end of the visit we will take you to discover the picturesque beach of Cala Luna.
Considered the most beautiful beach in the Mediterranean.
An 800-meter-long tongue of sand, a white crescent with six huge caves opening on the shore and in the background, as a crown, an oleander forest preceded by a freshwater pond. Nature protects the cove from the treacherous sirocco with a rock wall to the south.
Through the oleander forest one can enter the “codula” for trails in an exciting trek through dense Mediterranean scrub inhabited by rare birds of prey, wild boar and wild goats.
From Cala Luna in the afternoon a boat will sail every hour back to Cala Gonone, depending on the season from 15:30 to 18:30.
