The Romanelli Cave is one of the many sea caves along the Salento coastline, with a higher concentration mainly on the south-eastern side of the Salento, along that stretch of coast from Santa Maria di Leuca up the coast northwards to Castro Marina, the natural home of the Romanelli Cave. The cave is only 35 metres long and consists of a single chamber that is clearly visible from the outside; Grotta Romanelli can only be reached by sea and entry is prohibited. This stretch of coastline offers various ideas for those who love to experience the sea with all its specificities. The seabed is rich in all the animal and plant species that inhabit the depths of these azure and transparent waters, and the play of light reflected through the recesses of the caves and crevices of the rocks is a beautiful spectacle to be experienced. One is certainly not bored by the lack of golden beaches in certain parts of the Salento, the freshness of the sea that only the cliffs can give us is as sparkling as it is regenerating for our bodies, and all this thanks to the various freshwater currents along this stretch of coastline. Grotta Romanelli is important in terms of the history of prehistoric studies because with its discovery, the presence of the Upper Palaeolithic in Italy was ascertained; Having said that, I don"t want to bore you too much with historical studies and related research that are superfluous to our description, Castro Marina is a gem set amidst the beauty of an enchanting landscape and the Romanelli Cave, together with the wonderful sea that surrounds it, is direct evidence of this. So, if you are planning your next holiday and have any doubts about the various destinations, take a look at Salento and Castro in particular... happy holidays.
