Description
The big Cave of Ciolo is located a few hundred meters from the famous bay of the same name, a small pebbled cove between the banks of the ravine that slopes towards the sea. Inserted within a stretch of coast characterized by profound remodeling dated back to the Pleistocene, the cave is characterized by a magnificent sea level access and large areas of collapse.
The grand entrance, more than 30 meters high, gives access to a room that through the sea, leads to another room occupied by boulders collapsed: going up this environment you can reach a small lake generated by a layer of fresh water and more superior dry environments, where the cavity ends..
Remarkable is the palaeontological interest of the cave for the discovery of a Middle and Upper Pleistocene deposit.
