Palinuro Apartments & Villas (Cilento)

Surrounded by fine, sandy beaches, Cape Palinuro rises out of the unspoiled landscape of the southern Cilento National Park. Its silvery blue grottos are no less bright than those on Capri. The unusual rock formations which frame the beaches are rich in such colourful grottos, making a boat trip along the coast a unique experience.

Authentic Italy has a wide range of self catering accommodation in the region of Campania where you can rent cilento apartments or cilento villas for your relaxing holiday. Cilento is certainly worth a visit when you spend holidays in Italy.

Palinuro is an old fishing port, which is now a very popular destination, due to the particular beauty of its coastline and the many restaurants and varied shopping it offers to visitors. Because of the difficulty of sailing around it, the cape has always been shrouded in myth. Virgil recounts the story of the helmsman Palinuro, who first fell asleep and then fell into the sea. He was stranded and survived until the savage, brutal inhabitants of the cape found him and killed him. Since then, the cape has born the name of the wrecked navigator.

The surrounding area is rich in excavations and historic sites and the magnificent landscapes of the national park are ideal for walking. Cilento is famous for its simple, but exceedingly delicious cuisine. Before June and after September, the extensive beaches are almost deserted. For holidays in Cilento you can rent self catering apartments or villas in and around Palinuro, as a good start for a relaxing vacation in Italy.
