Things to do in Alghero

Neptune’s Caves Boat Tour

It may be named after the Roman god of the sea – but Neptune's Grotto was discovered only a couple of hundred years ago. Hidden just above the water level at the base of the towering and remote Capo Caccia cliffs, the grotto is one of Sardinia's most dramatic natural attractions.After sailing from the harbour, you'll pass rugged coastline before reaching the grotto in under an hour. On arrival, you can choose whether to go in to Neptune's Grotto or not. If you do, you'll see stalactites biting down like incisors from the roof of the cave and stalagmites stabbing up from the floor like daggers, and a saltwater lake that stretches out for 120 metres – all while having the geology expertly brought to life by your local guide.If you choose not to take the subterranean tour, you can stay on board basking in the sunshine. Either option is a great way to spend some time before a leisurely trip back to port.

Castelsardo guided tour

You'll also have some free time to delve a little deeper. Plus, there's also a photo stop at Elephant Rock on the way there.You'll drive along the coastal road, stopping by Elephant Rock – which, true to its name, is a rock that oddly resembles an elephant. And after arriving in Castelsardo, you'll catch the shuttle bus up to the top of hill from where your tour will start.You'll meander your way through the cobbled alleys of the historic centre to the castle – which also hosts a basket-weaving museum – and catch sight of the sea-facing cathedral. Enjoy some free time for a cappuccino at one of the cafes lined up along the zig zags of stairways, then meet up with your guide before heading back down the hill.
