Ronzu Beddu Cave

Ronzu Beddu Cave is officially listed as “Grotta dell’Acqua dolce 5 (Grotta Ronzu Beddu)” in Melendugno at 40.2666333, 18.4417500. It is a sea cave on the coast between Sant’Andrea and Torre dell’Orso. A guided outing is the safer way to approach it, and calm sea conditions are essential.

The cave is mainly a place to view from the sea. For a close visit, use authorised local operators and avoid independent entry in uncertain conditions.

Rocky coast and irregular seabed, often deep near cave entrances. Surge, waves and boat traffic can make a visit unsuitable.

Not a first choice for small children: rock, depth, paths or sea access require experience and constant supervision.

No dedicated parking is guaranteed. Park only in authorised spaces and expect summer pressure.

Trails, rocks or sea access make the place unsuitable for wheelchairs, pushchairs and reduced mobility.

Visit only in calm sea with a safe return route. No uncontrolled cliff jumps and no cave entry in swell or surge.
