COMUNE DI SPERLONGA



















Lying along Via Flacca, Sperlonga is a charming seaside village, standing on the rocky spur of the Monti Ausoni, Mt. St.Magno., and whose shores are licked by the Thirrenian Sea. Its original tranquillity made Sperlonga a favourite holiday place among the Romans, and it is today a happy seaside resort, still closely linked to its agricultural traditions and full of characteristic surprises: narrow lanes which wind steeply up to the top of the hill, arches which link the brightly painted houses at the foot of the slope and which unexpectedly open onto courtyards and other lanes. The beaches along the 10 km. sandy shoreline all have typical names – to the east the beaches of Bambole, Capovento, Bazzano and Angolo, and to the west those of Canzatora and Amyclae. The rocks shaped by the wind;, the shores studded with coastal defence towers, which also hide marine caves; the luxurian slopes which are a haven of Mediterranean flora, and planted with olive groves and nursery gardens; the port used by fishermen and small pleasure crafts; the natural monument Promontorio Villa di Tiberio e Torre Capovento Punta Cetarola (now part of the Regional Park Riviera di Ulisse); the Tiberius’ villa and cave, all contribute to make Sperlonga a site of great tourist, naturalist, historic and archaeologic appeal. The area of Tiberius’ Cave, brought to light in the fifties of the 20th century, also includes a lily pond, and a large fishery, and is home to the National Archaeological Museum, which conserves, among other things, four important marble groups bound to the vicissitudes of Ulysses, most found in the same area.
