Casal Velino, a Blue Flag seaside resort, is perfect for holidays and exploring the nearby Velia archaeological site.
Marina di Casal Velino is a stunning destination located within the Cilento National Park, surrounded by lush Mediterranean vegetation and bordering the Velia Archaeological Site. Its coastline, featuring a 7-kilometer-long sandy beach, stretches between the mouth of the Alento River and the rocky shore leading to Pioppi. Marina di Casal Velino is one of the most sought-after tourist destinations in Cilento, renowned for its Blue Flag beaches, its tourist port, and a wide range of restaurants, bars, and services designed for visitors. The Marina di Casal Velino port is a strategic hub for those looking to explore the Cilento coast by boat. It is also a stop on the Metrò del Mare, a ferry service that connects Cilento to Capri, Amalfi, and Positano, offering a unique opportunity to visit the Amalfi Coast directly from the sea.
Inland, the charming villages of Acquavella and Casal Velino are perched on gentle hills, offering breathtaking sea views. These villages, originally founded as refuges for local populations during the Saracen invasions, have preserved their authentic atmosphere, with historic buildings, cobbled streets, and a strong connection to Cilento’s artisanal traditions. The surrounding hills are renowned for producing high-quality extra virgin olive oil, made from centuries-old olive trees that thrive in the region’s favorable Mediterranean climate. A visit to these villages offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the history and culture of Cilento, savoring local delicacies while admiring panoramic views that extend all the way to the sea.
