:: PUNTA CAMPANELLA


The establishment of the Marine Protected Area “Punta Campanella” has the aim to preserve one of the most beautiful and rich stretches of Italian coast from a naturalistic point of view, both for the terrestrial and for the underwater environment. The 40 Km of coasts of the Peninsula Sorrentina are a succession of green promontories and welcoming inlets: the Baia di Ieranto is famous, since it offers to the visitor a unique landscape. Despite the continuous spoilations which mainly took place in the last half of the century, the seabed of the peninsula is still rich in precious evidences of the ancient trade activities involving the area. According to historical documents, we know that a Roman fleet with Julius Caesar wrecked near Punta and many ships sank.

 

MASSA LUBRENSE

The delightful little town of Massa Lubrense and its territory is virtually triangular in shape, its north-eastern side borders with Sorrento, whilst the other two sides are formed by the Gulf of Salerno and the Bay of Naples, with Punta Campanella at its vertex, facing the island of Capri. From the administrative point of view, apart from the main town there are another seventeen villages which have developed from the ancient hamlets and are still linked by an intricate network of paths, mule tracks and lanes as well as by the main roads. One of these villages is Sant'Agata Sui Due Golfi, its name says everything about the breathtaking views which it enjoys over both the Bay of Naples and Salerno. Not to miss is a visit to the old fishing village of Nerano, that has become a pleasant beach resort, without spoiling the original atmosphere, you can still buy from local fisherman, fresh fish for your own kitchen or to be cooked in one of the nearby restaurants.
