Cava d'Aliga: Bay, Coastal Path and Culture in the Surrounding Area

Cava d'Aliga is a small bay. Its beach has fine sand and is framed by two impressive rocky cliffs that form a natural bay. Swimmers can swim across the bay.

Beach and Grotta on the Coast

The Grotta dei Contrabbandieri is a natural sea cave washed by the sea and illuminated by sunlight. It can be reached on foot along the coast from the eastern side of Cava d'Aliga's main beach. This makes it possible to experience the bathing bay and natural cave one after the other along a single stretch of coast.

Hiking with Manageable Difficulty

The hiking trail of the Itinerario della costa marina to the Parco extraurbano di Costa di Carro also provides a clear focal point. It is approximately 3.6 km long, has a moderate to rather low level of difficulty and is suitable for teenagers and adults. The level of difficulty can be taken into account when planning the excursion before setting out. If you would like to incorporate exercise into your trip, this trail offers an explicitly described option for different age groups. Its approximate length helps you consider the trail as a separate item on your itinerary alongside the beach and cave.

Tambeach and a Special Local Connection

Cava d'Aliga also has an unusual connection with Tambeach. The sport, mainly played in summer, was first regulated in Cava d'Aliga in 1975; the first Tamburelli tournament was also held there. For visitors interested not only in the landscape but also in local sporting connections, this association adds to the picture of the coastal town.
