Accessible only by boat or through a bit of adventurous hiking, the Grotta dei Colombi is a haven for nature enthusiasts and those seeking tranquility. The cave's name, meaning "Cave of the Pigeons," hints at the wildlife that inhabits this secluded spot. 🕊️ The shimmering blue waters within the cave are perfect for a refreshing swim, while the rocky formations around it make for stunning photo opportunities.
