Further details
Castellabate is a medieval hill-top village in the Cilento region of Campania, Southern Italy. Located in a national park, it is situated 900 feet above sea level. The castle of the Abbot (where the name of the village originates) was begun in the 12th century and served as a refuge for the inhabitants against the raids of the Saracen pirates. Other attractions are the Angevin Papal Basilica and a 12th century bell tower. In the last century, Castellabate hosted many illustrious persons, such as the musician Leoncavallo and Giocchino Murat.
For all its seclusion, Castellabate is not remote. The long sandy beach (awarded a European Blue Flag) at Santa Maria di Castellabate is only 10 minutes by car. Santa Maria is a fishing village where small piazzas on sandy coves frame many lovely old buildings. There is a good selection of shops and cafes; a tranquil backwater in low season or a hive of activity in July and August.There are numerous places of natural and historic interest in the vicinity: the caves of Castelcivita and Pertosa are a real paradise for those who want to follow the subterranean by boat. The famous Greek temples of Paestum are only 20 minutes drive away.The well known resorts of Amalfi, Positano, Ravello and the Isle of Capri are all within easy reach of Castellabate.
Life in Castellabate is simple and charming. With the exception of the month of August, when the Italians take their holidays, the beaches are still uncrowded and clean. There are many restaurants and pizzerias. Children are welcomed everywhere and eating out is not expensive. Above all it is such a pleasure to be able to have your meals outside.
