From A Height Of Over 100 M., Right Behind The
Ward Of San Nicol Di Ricadi, Stands The
Lighthouse, Whose Light Is Visible For A Distance
Of 23 Miles.
Further On, Where The Slopes Incline More Gently,
There Are The Enchanting Grotticelle And Santa
Maria Bays, With Their Typical Fishing Village.
Finally, The Seabed Is Very Beautiful, Where The
Play Of Currents That Mingle In The Open Sea,
Coming From The Two Gulfs, Protects And Feeds A
Fish And Botanical Heritage Among The Richest And
Most Assorted In Italy.
