Grup Espeleològic Alguerès

G.E.A. Grup Espeleològic Alguerès was born from the formalization of the immense passion of five friends for speleology and their great love for the Sardinian territory.

Increasing research, study and protection of a highly suggestive and fascinating environment such as the underground world, spreading knowledge among young people, these are the objectives that accompany the birth certificate of G.E.A..

The systematic exploration of the territory had, until the birth of the association, been carried out primarily in an unofficial manner and had already borne fruit, with the discovery of many cavities in the Sassari area, including:

• Gruta de las Guaurras, splendid for the delicate eccentric concretions that characterize it,
• Gruta Gea, with its famous circles on the ground which have led it to be among the most visited caves by local and visiting speleologists,

but also other cavities outside the narrow territory of Alghero such as the Gruta del Buf, the Gruta 1° de la Penya and the Grotta 1° di Santu Jagu.

Also noteworthy are the explorations of the G.E.A. speleo divers. in 1975 in the terminal lake of the Green Cave and participation in the subsequent underwater archaeological excavation in the aforementioned lake conducted in 1979 by the Experimental Center of Underwater Archaeology; the excavation led to the discovery of a Neolithic necropolis.
