To arrive: the coves can be reached by boat, from Alghero, or, by car through the statal road 127-bis (away 24 km from the small town): when it arrives to the cape of Capo Caccia, one passes on the evocative Escala of the Cabirol (656 steps), that connects the cavities to the large square of the cape.

The Coves of Neptune are visited every year from many tourists, fascinated by the salty lake that crosses to them, by the imposing columns, formed from the union of stalactite and stalagmite, and from the splendid concretions, that are the result of the action of the water on the limestone cliff.
