Grotta Verde, Sea cave in Anacapri, Italy.
The Grotta Verde contains waters reflecting green light due to sunlight interacting with the yellow-tinted walls and blue sea reflections inside the cavern.
Archaeological excavations within the cave uncovered Neolithic materials beneath the water, indicating early human presence in this marine formation.
Local fishermen pass down tales about the cave through generations, sharing knowledge about navigation patterns and seasonal changes in water colors.
Boat tours access the cave entrance during calm weather conditions, allowing visitors to observe the natural light phenomena from specific viewing points.
The cave floor formed when land levels were higher, while the roof eroded during lower land periods, creating its current geological structure.
