Overview
Once a thriving hub of mineral extraction, the Aggeria Mines now stand as a testament to the island's rich geological heritage. But you don't need to be a history hound to appreciate the dramatic scenery on offer at one of the largest bentonite mines in the world. Instead, towering rock formations, naturally painted in striking hues of red, ochre, and orange, create an otherworldly landscape that captures the imagination — and camera lens — of all who visit.
It's almost impossible not to feel like you've been transported to times past when you venture deeper into the labyrinthine network of tunnels and are immersed in a world that once buzzed with activity. With the walls bearing the marks of centuries of mining, and the air tinged with stillness, silence and a sense of nostalgia, the Aggeria Mines create a sense of serenity that is hard to find anywhere else in the world.
