Nice medieval city just a few km. from Agroply.Outside the big season, there is not musch activity as for restaurant and stores, BUT this make a nice place to visit quietly
Since it was chosen as the location for the "Benvenuti al sud" movie (a remake of "Bienvenue chez le ch'tis" by Dany Boon), Castellabate has become a favorite destination in the Salerno area and it's worth a visit. A medieval charming little village on top of a high hill with a pleasant central square, venue of most of the movie's scenes.
If you can make it up the hill, the trip is definitely worth the climb!
This is a nice place to visit in Salerno, quite south of Salerno.If you are a sea person, you can visit it. Of course, it may not be as amazing as Amalfi Coast but of coast it has its beauty.As it is low season, I took a cab as there was not much tour and i din drive.I was lucky to meet a nice driver who charged me the price for almost 6 hours for the same price as 4h. It is expensive though but its the price you have to pay if you don't rent a car or book a tour.
Castellabate is one of the best-kept secrets in the south of Italy. Situated on a mountaintop overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, one hour south of Salerno. There are surprisingly few tourists, even in summer. There are fantastic views from different piazzettas, and a few good restaurants. A must see before it is discovered by mass tourism.
I saw this from below and wasn't impressed, but really enjoyed actually touring the place. Small village with many stairs and alleys.
