attraction· 3 min from marina (227m)

Head to Capo d'Orlando to check out these fascinating sandstone formations carved with mysterious circular grooves, a geological curiosity that's been puzzling locals and researchers alike.

It's the kind of place that sparks genuine conversation and isn't on most tourist itineraries.
