Grotta del Genovese Interesting : Michelin's recommendations

Discovered in 1949, this cave contains etchings and rock art dating back to the late Palaeolithic and Neolithic periods. The imagery includes bisons and a very beautiful stag in perspective, with harmonious proportions. The paintings confirm that fishing is an extremely ancient activity on the island, since tuna fish and dolphins can be seen.
