About Cape Greco

'Far from the Madding Crowd'

Thomas Hardy would agree and so would you. This is a pristine paradise made of sea caves and tiny coves. Easy and difficult nature trails beckon. Flora and fauna await curious discoveries. The sun rises and sets here in all his glory. A picnic is a must with snorkeling thrown in. Juniper and pine trees stand guard watching you with cautious regard. The silence is occasionally broken by the call of a seagull. The waves crash in on your subconscious. Here, you are far from the crowd and near to nature. Go back rejuvenated. It is good to lose your senses in nature's healing grasp.
