Nereo Cave, Mediterranean underwater cave in Alghero, Italy

Nereo Cave extends through a network of tunnels and chambers beneath the limestone cliffs of Capo Caccia, featuring ten different entrance points.

The cave received its name from Nereus, a figure in Greek mythology who ruled as the ancient deity of the Mediterranean Sea.

Local diving communities gather at Nereo Cave throughout the year to document marine life and conduct scientific research on underwater ecosystems.

Certified diving centers in Alghero provide guided tours of Nereo Cave, with depths ranging from surface level to 35 meters below.

Red coral colonies and yellow leptosamnia cover the cave walls, creating natural decorations throughout the underwater passages.
