Rank : 9.4 (average on 5 votes)Coordinates : 40.564058,8.162277 ( Open in Google Maps) Subjects : You can make only photos of landscape, including more or less detail. There are animals, but the calcareous formations characteristics provide many opportunities for creative photography, being the natural underground caves, you have to have in mind that you are in a very special place, however, the surrounding area is a natural paradise, not There is therefore limited to the caves, but once you leave there is a beautiful landscape! Some guidelines say a particular breed of rapacious feature of the cliffs in the area ... but I honestly I have not seen even the shadow!Recommended equipment : Obviously, a wide angle (I was behind the 17-50 2.8 on 40D and I was fine) and a tele (recommended but not essential, if you love the details, do not expect to use it for birds because there is none) Warning that the caves have the classic light yellowish (in my opinion very impressive), but difficult to manage, is also a must lens light (at least 2.8) and dare with the ISO. If you love the details, you can with a bright cloth to some pictures of the concretions smaller and far ...Best months : Surely summer is the best time to visit the caves the main problem with this place is that it is highly dependent on weather conditions, can be visited only in calm seas, as access is located on the water level.How to get there : At the caves, you will arrive in two ways, being the entrance of the caves at sea level at the bottom of a steep cliff, the first way is by boat (from Alghero, 15 euro), the second is a flight of several hundred steps ( 700), literally clinging to the mountain. The scale does not present any difficulty, however, is only long, but in 20 minutes you can easily which can be a problem (but only for the most sensitive), the sun, as the scale, half a day, it is exposed to direct sun . For those who do not have a car, the bus is quite comfortable alternative, the round trip costs 4 € 4 return (again from Alghero but it also stops) and stops right at the top of the stairs.Visits : The entrance ticket costs 13 euro if I remember correctly (certainly not much more and not much less). The downhill walk from the stairway is free (consigliata! seen the view that you can enjoy ...).Notes : | | Nearby:   Capo Caccia - Grotte di Nettuno 1 km
