Located in the Tyrrhenian Sea, on the south side of the Gulf of Naples, this romantic site offers enchanting views, delectable cuisine, a rugged landscape, and an abundance of limoncello. One of the island’s most well known natural site, spotted on all the postcards in the area, is a dark cavern known as the Blue Grotto. Here you’ll find glowing electric-blue water due to the result of sunlight passing through an underwater cave.
