Porto Conte

| |
Porto Conte is located in 9 NM North from Alghero. It is the largest natural harbour in Italy, but it is too shallow though for commercial craft. There are two nature reserves in this area: the land reserve Parco naturale regionale di Porto Conte and the marine reserve Area protetta Capo Caccia - Isola Piana.

Tourism
The Grotta di Nettuno is a remarkable stalactite-covered cave at the foot of cliffs near Capo Caccia. It can be reached either by boat excursion from Alghero (in settled weather only). You may also leave your boat at the Cala Dragonara and walk along the road to Capo Caccia then down the 656 steps of the Escala del Cabirol (goat's stairway). There are hourly guided tours through the cave system.
At the head of the Cala Tramariglio there is a coplex of buildings of the Casa di Lavoro (House of Labour), a former penal colony. It was designed by Arturo Miraglia, who also made a planning for Fertilia. The complex is now occupied by the head quarters of the Porto Conte Park.
