Amalfi Coast Santa Maria di Castellabate

Santa Maria di Castellabate, a small village considered to be one of the most beautiful in the whole of Italy, is situated on Campania's Tyrrhenian coast, within the boundaries of the Park of Cilento. An established UNESCO world heritage site, Santa Maria di Castellabate has now become one of the most highly praised seaside destinations in the area. Easily reached both from Naples and Salerno, each summer Santa Maria di Castellabate welcomes a growing number of visitors.

Its historical and architectural features, the sea, the beaches, and, above all, the spectacular natural landscape, have resulted in this village, once inhabited only by fishermen and their families, becoming an extremely popular tourist destination. Santa Maria di Castellabate is surrounded by the Park of Cilento and the Vallo di Diano, sites which testify to the relationship between the inhabitants, the sea, and the countryside. Close by, lie the fascinating archaeological sites of Agropoli and Paestum.
