Horse cave
Description

Horse cave

Reachable only by sea. 

Known as the Hermit's Cave, it has four entrances, one of which is now underground. Accessible thanks to the light reflected at the entrance from a natural siphon, this cave has passages consisting of galleries, wells, ponds and formations of stalactites, stalagmites and cannulae.
It has a "vaulted" or domed conformation in many of the passages, given by the combined effect over time of the sulphurous waters and the vapors released by them with normal karst. (Text source: https://www.isoleeolie.me.it/vulcano/le-spiagge-di-vulcano/grotta-del-cavallo/)
