Capo Caccia, Protected coastal area in Province of Sassari, Italy.
The limestone cliffs of Capo Caccia rise 170 meters above the Mediterranean Sea, creating a peninsula with diverse marine ecosystems and native vegetation.
The Neptune Cave within Capo Caccia contains archaeological evidence of human presence dating back to ancient times, when it served as a shelter.
