Visit the Zinzulusa Cave in Castro
An hour inside one of Castro's caves, in any season.
What you do
Castro's coastline is full of caves, and the Zinzulusa is the one not to miss. You step inside, the noise of the road fades, and you walk through the rock at your own pace.
The visit takes about an hour. That is enough to look around properly and still come back out into the light ready to ride.
It runs all year, so it works just as well out of season, when the coast is quieter.
By bike
I see it as the goal of a day on the Castro coast. You ride there, lock the bike with the lock that comes with your rental and go in. An hour later you are back in the saddle.
I put together a self-guided route with a GPX track and a roadbook. If you are staying far from our bases in Lecce, San Foca and Calimera, I can deliver the bike to your accommodation for a surcharge based on distance. And on a day off the bike, the cave is just as good a visit.
