Fiorenzuola di Focara: The sea from San Bartolo, guided excursion｜Italy

An excursion that will take you to discover one of the most picturesque corners of the Adriatic Sea along the coastal cliffs of Mount San Bartolo, along a scenic route overlooking the sea.

We begin our excursion from Fiorenzuola di Focara, a small medieval village still enclosed by walls overlooking the sea and already mentioned by Dante Alighieri in the Divine Comedy.

From here we will continue on to Casteldimezzo, another medieval fortified village that together with Castedimezzo and Gradara formed the defensive strongholds of the area. Our walk will immerse us in the scents and colors of the Mediterranean maquis.

We will descend to Vallugola Bay, a natural inlet surrounded by forest, once a stopping point for ships transiting the Adriatic due to the presence of a source of drinking water.
