Cala Gadir

Cala Gadir, on the eastern coast of Pantelleria, is a place where the island's volcanic landscape intertwines with important archaeological evidence linked to its long maritime history. Traces and artifacts dating back to ancient settlements on the island have been discovered in the cove's waters and surrounding areas, evidence of trade and contacts across the Mediterranean. This underwater archaeological heritage, combined with the natural characteristics of the coast, makes Cala Gadir a particularly interesting place to learn about the relationship between Pantelleria, the sea, and the civilizations that have inhabited it over the centuries.
