Coastal caves

The coastal caves of Cilento are more than just beautiful; they are world-class natural treasures with an ancient history.

Forming intact habitats of prehistoric man, this system of coastal caves—stretching between Palinuro and Marina di Camerota on one of Europe's most stunning coastlines—is among the most important in the world.

Over 60 caves have been explored in the area, yielding stone tools estimated to be nearly half a million years old.

Discovering this breathtaking and well-hidden highlight of Cilento is an absolute must.
