 San Marco di CastellabateThe large municipality of Castellabate, with a surface of 37 square Km, counts five districts: Castellabate, Santa Maria di Castellabate, San Marco di Castellabate, Ogliastro Marina and Lago. At the foot of the medieval town of Castellabate, listed as UNESCO World Heritage site, the enchanting gulf between Punta Licosa and Punta Tresino alternates golden beaches to suggestive sea cliffs, making Santa Maria, San Marco and Lago beautiful pearls wrapped into a fascinating Mediterranean maquis and enchanted sea. History, mild climate, natural colours between the turquoise sea and the verdant expanses, the locals' laboriousness, the people's courtesy, flavours and tastes of the simple Cilento traditional cuisine are the essential elements to choose these places for your relaxing vacation. As warm and welcoming tourist port, San Marco is extremely rich in remains of the ancient Roman and Greek presence, which are now preserved into the Museum of Paestum. Just behind the port you will be able to admire the ruins of the old Greek-Roman port and we cannot exclude the presence of ancient patrician villas. Very close to the delightful centre there is the wonderful natural park of Castelsandra, where to admire different types of vegetation and walk through relaxing naturalistic paths. A bewitching route, wisely cured, accompanied by the sound of the sea, from the port you can reach Punta del Pozzillo, when the sun falls asleep sweetly among lovely colours. In summer you cannot miss the most important religious celebrations in town St Marco the Evangelist (25th of April) and Madonna della Speranza (the second-last Sunday of August).
