The Neptune Grotto is a stalactite cave, it is 1 meter above sea level. It is a cave system about 4 km long, a few hundred meters are open to the public. From here you can reach it via 654 steps down the almost vertical cliff. A boat tour from Alghero is less strenuous. There is an entrance fee of €14.

May 26, 2025,Sardinien - Besuch der Neptungrotte

The descent and ascent of the 650 steps directly along the vertical cliffs was more interesting than the stalactite cave.
Not a must-see.

If you want to visit the grotto, you should buy tickets on the internet beforehand. We should wait 2 hours, so we only went down the 632 stairs to the grotto entrance 🤗
But the way alone is worth it 👍
