It’s best to stay there for 2-3 nights to explore the region. Summer is delightful, with almost-guaranteed sunshine, blue skies and perfect Mediterranean Sea. This is the ideal time for sunbathing, swimming, diving and boat trips – as well as for outdoor music festivals and parish festas. To get the best light, you should go to Blue Grotto in the morning: that’s when the sun shines into it.
