The extreme point of the Sorrento Peninsula is Punta Campanella with its marine reserve, from which the island of Capri can be distinctly observed. The backbone of the coast is the Lattari Mountains, whose lush nature and very picturesque paths make it one of the most popular destinations for trekking lovers.
The sea that laps the Sorrentine territory has always inspired the ancients, who had located the mythical land of the Sirens precisely among the small beaches and hidden coves of this coast. Crystal-clear waters and outcropping rocks provide an ideal habitat for many sea creatures and are a real discovery for divers.
Another strength of the "Costa delle Sirene" is the rich culinary tradition that has produced recipes known everywhere such as gnocchi or spaghetti alla sorrentina or stuffed cuttlefish alla sorrentina.
Walnuts, wine, limoncello, (a lemon-based liqueur), traditional Gragnano pasta, Agerola dairy products, and cured meats where pork is treated with orange peel round out an offering that can satisfy even the most difficult gourmets.
