The temple of Athena (or Athena): https://www.puntacampanella.org/aspetti-archeologici/tempio-di-atena-punta-campanella To go down (and back up) you have to use ropes fixed to the rock. The photos were taken by @aannuziat (Angelo)

Descent towards the Minerva cave

Near the tower, in a crack in the ground, you can go down to the Grotta di Minerva or delle Sirene, where it is said that Partenope found refuge here when she was far from the island of Li Galli. The reflection of the sea, together with the reflections of light that penetrate from its openings, amplify the mystical aura of the place. Climbing routes are traced on the external walls of the cave overlooking the sea. The descent to the cave is not suitable for everyone, spurs of rock, slippery in places, force you to hold on to ropes set up for sections of mountaineering difficulty. Along the rocky wall of descent it is said that a rock epigraph was carved in the Oscan language that mentions the names of those who worked on the landing in the 2nd century BC.

Access via Via Grotta Azzurra and then only possible by boat.

The Blue Grotto is a cave whose entrance is a 1.5 meter high rock hole in the sea. The cave is about 52 meters long and 30 meters wide, the water inside is about 15 meters deep. Since daylight enters the grotto mainly below sea level reflected in the sea water, the water inside the cave shimmers in a peculiar blue hue. Max, 4 people have to lie in the boat to get into the cave. The gondolier has to watch for the right wave and then he pulls himself into the cave on a chain. The same also happens when exiting the cave. You have to lie on top of each other and the boatman pulls himself out with the chain. If the waves are too high then the cave will be closed.

Access to the sea is slippery

Steep descent to the grotto but worth seeing
