San Marco di Castellabate is a charming fishing village in the Cilento region, part of the more famous municipality of Castellabate. It is set against a backdrop where unspoiled nature meets the allure of history and local traditions. Overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea and sheltered by the hills of the Cilento National Park, this corner of Campania provides a perfect balance between relaxation and exploration.
Its beaches, some sandy and others pebbly, are kissed by clear, calm waters, often awarded the Blue Flag for their quality and environmental sustainability. The marina of San Marco retains the charm of a small harbor, serving as a departure point for boats offering excursions along the coastline and to the Punta Licosa Marine Protected Area, known for its biodiversity and legends.
The village center is quaint and authentic, featuring shops, restaurants, and venues that serve Cilento cuisine made with simple, genuine ingredients: extra virgin olive oil, white figs, menaica anchovies, and wood-fired bread. The slow pace of life and the warm hospitality of the locals make San Marco an ideal retreat for those wishing to experience a human-scale lifestyle, away from mass tourism.
Its strategic location allows for easy exploration of the area's natural and cultural treasures: in just a few minutes, one can reach the medieval village of Castellabate, a UNESCO World Heritage site, with its 11th-century castle and narrow streets that offer breathtaking views. Nearby, there are also nature trails, rural sanctuaries, and archaeological sites such as Paestum and Velia, which bear witness to the Greek presence in Southern Italy.
San Marco di Castellabate is a place that has preserved its identity, where sea, history, and nature coexist in harmony. It is perfect for those seeking a rejuvenating holiday, as well as for those who enjoy immersing themselves in the intricate details of a culture that remains vibrant, authentic, and deeply connected to its land.
