We enjoyed the ferry ride and tour of the Grotto. Tours are in English and Italian. The ferry and tour takes about two hours. I learned the difference between stalactites and stalagmites and enjoyed the otherworldly look of the caves 3 main rooms. It’s an easy walk but no photography and no place to stow bags.

We visited in March and kayaked in Cedrino for the afternoon. Loved how serene the water was despite some wind and the fact that was nobody else but us in the river.

Beautiful beach just 10 minutes drive from Cala Gonone. There's a few steps to get to it but nothing too difficult. Bear in mind when parking on the road (there's no carpark) that you park inside the white lines. It's okay to park on the view areas on the side of the road as long as it's inside the white line. There's police around all the time checking and you will get fined for sure.

The Cala Gonone Acquarium is placed in a marvellousMediterranean park. The exhibit, projected as an acquatic journey from the shore to the dephts passing trough coral reefs, displays different ecosystems of the Mediterranean Sea in 24 entertaining and educational tanks, with great attention on typical organism living in our sea.La splendida struttura dell’ Acquario di Cala Gononeè ospitata in un’ area di notevole interesse paesaggistico. Il percorso espositivo, che comprende 24 vasche, illustra seguendo un criterio progressivo legato alla profondità, l’ ambiente marino Mediterraneo.
First impression of Cala Gonone may not be great, but the aquarium is amazing. The tanks are spotless and the fish seem to be happy. Everywhere you look you find educational information about the sea life and the impact humans have on it by polluting, overfishing, bringing invasive species, destroying the environment. It touched me to see their blind male sea turtle and burnt fox. The turtle has been found choking with plastic on the shore unable to go back to water, swim and feed while seagulls were pecking its eyes. They saved it but the turtle is blind now and they have to feed it through a tube while distracting the other fish in the tank. It is heartbreaking to see it bump into the rocks of the aquarium. But people working there do their best taking care of it and they managed to help it double its weight. The fox is the victim of a fire. First, when I saw it, I thought it was such a strange breed, to learn afterwards that it had a face permanently deformed and no claws due to the fire. It was a baby when it happened and had to be fed and cared for by humans. Due to this and its injuries it will have to spend the rest of its days here. So, I was really impressed by the dedication these people have for taking care of these two animals. They have lots of fish, all so beautiful and in gorgeously arranged environments. Also of a deep emotional effect on all is the fish tank with small sharks and stingrays that come, of their own free will, to be petted by visitors. It is simply amazing to see those fish come from their protected area, swim towards people and float or stick their heads out of the water to be touched and caressed. It makes one think that fish, even the feared and misinterpreted sharks, have a brain and a soul, appreciate affection and interaction, they are not just food.
