    Hiking

    an artificial cavity overlooking the sea, is the cave of San Cristoforo, the most important of those existing there. It is a white limestone cave, open in the bay of Torre dell’Orso on the south-eastern side and looks like a rectangular excavation, probably carried out between the 4th and 3rd centuries BC. It was used as a place of worship and its ancient graffiti in Greek and Latin testify to it
