Briatico

Briatico Briatico

Briatico was almost completely destroyed by an earthquake in 1783. The most important tourist sight is the Torre La Rocchetta, a picturesque ruin of a 16th century Saracen tower. Briatico is today still regarded as a place of extraordinary beauty with unique charm. Between its steep ledges with breathtaking panoramas there are powerful fortresses and beautiful sandy beaches, some of which are accessible only by boat. The area surrounding Briatico is scattered with numerous vineyards, orchards and olive groves. The earthy, untouched flora and fauna is also stunning. In spring you will discover a never-ending sea of flowers of a thousand colours and the perfume of many herbs and spices mingles with the salty smell of the sea.
