Grotta Azzurra near Capo Palinuro delivers vivid turquoise water and glowing rock walls, best photographed from the small boat inside the cave. Morning light (around sunrise–late morning) boosts the blue “aura.” Go in calm weather for cleaner reflections; boats depart from the Capo Palinuro harbor. Parking is limited—arrive early and expect a short walk to the docks; entrance is via guided boat excursions (bring water shoes).
