Capo Altano is a little gem. You can reach the promontory from the car park via the paved cycle path, and there are also many winding paths that pass over cliffs and through pine forests. In addition to the old bunkers, there is a brick arch which offers a great photo opportunity with the sea. The view is absolutely gorgeous, especially at sunset.

Cliff and historical point of Capo Altano. Easily accessible by the cycle path.

We got there at sunset coming from Gonnesa. One of the most beautiful sunsets seen on the island, and we also camped out for the night.
