Cava Grado beach

Cava Grado is a small beach in the rocks of Ischia island in Italy (not to be confused with Cava Ruffano). It's only 30 meters of dark sand with a spectacular view from above. There are usually not many people - both in the free area, as well as on rental sunbeds. Entry into the water is comfortable, and a little further away from the coastline there are stones with good snorkeling on clear water. It is also worth to note a cafe and thermal springs in shallow water. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
