Tips from the Community
Scario is a small village that still retains its maritime character. The small harbor still houses many fishing boats and small vessels. Its secluded location makes it a quieter place than nearby Sapri and Policastro Bussentino.

This bike path is newly built. It currently ends near the town of Villammare, but the municipality plans to extend it. The path is very well maintained and picturesque, with a stunning view of the Gulf of Policastro.

From morning to evening, especially when the season does not lend the beaches to fleets of bathers, this place can be a relief for the eyes and mind.

An imposing bronze statue dedicated to the legendary Gleaner of Sapri, the protagonist of Luigi Mercantini's famous poem. It depicts the young peasant girl who, according to the poem, witnessed Carlo Pisacane's ill-fated expedition in 1857. Located on the Sapri seafront, the statue overlooks the Gulf of Policastro and offers a spectacular panoramic view, a symbol of freedom and historical memory.

Among the many natural beauties of Cilento, the Capelli di Venere waterfalls in Casaletto Spartano deserve special mention. The Capelli di Venere waterfalls are among the most beautiful in Campania and are visited from all over Italy. Cilento's most famous waterfall is located within the Capello Oasis. The Capelli di Venere waterfall is formed by the Bussentino, a tributary of the Bussento River. The Capelli di Venere waterfall is a natural spectacle, a union of three elements: the water of the Bussentino flows over the maidenhair fern plant that grows attached to the rock. The Capelli di Venere waterfall has created natural pools in the riverbed where you can even bathe. A dip in the icy waters is a real treat, considering the freezing temperatures even in the middle of August.

The state road, except in the summer, is not excessively busy, obviously you have to be careful, but the view from Sapri to Marina di Maratea is one of the most beautiful that a road open to vehicular traffic can offer!!!!!! Wonderful!!!!!!
