Capo d'Orlando Marina tourist port

In the splendid scenery of the Tyrrhenian coast, overlooking the sea in front of the Aeolian islands, the Capo d'Orlando Marina tourist port was inaugurated in 2017, which boasts activities of the highest quality including restaurants, bars and shops. There are also various services for boaters. In this place, you can also admire the Cave del Mercadante, circular-shaped carvings made of sandstone that emerge from the water. The diameter of the grooves that generate these large stone discs varies from one to two meters and goes deep for about ten centimeters. The function of these discs remains unknown today and it is assumed that millstones are extracted for the mills.
