The Ciolandrea plateau is a recently built lookout point. The view of the Gulf of Policastro from here is truly breathtaking. The place is quiet and perfect for recharging your batteries. This is the starting point for trails leading to secluded coves, but you must pay close attention to the path. There's also a drinking fountain here.

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.

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.

Isolated pilgrimage church above San Giovanni a Piro with a beautiful view of Monte Bulgheria. The interior is surprisingly simple.

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!!!!!!
