Breathtaking views, nature trails, the beaches of "Baia d'Arena" and "Casa del Conte", and gastronomic excellences such as the white fig.

The Aleppo pine forest of Ripe Rosse, included in the European network of geosites in 2013, is a precious natural asset of Montecorice. The town is made up of the hamlets of Agnone, Case del Conte, Ortodonico, Fornelli, Zoppi, and Cosentini. Fishing is a centuries-old tradition in the villages of Agnone Cilento and San Nicola a Mare. In the summer, it is possible to go out on a boat with the fishermen, watch or participate in one of the various types of fishing practiced, or take excursions to discover the coast. The beach of Baia d'Arena is a popular destination for vacationers due to its fine, golden sand and the sandy dune behind the beach, which still preserves a rich and lush vegetation. In the hinterland, you can visit the historic centers of the hilly areas, in particular Ortodonico, which is perched around the tower of the 16th-century marquis' palace built by the Amoresano family. Finally, the Montanari area, included in the integral reserve of the park, downstream of Mount Stella, is a natural monument where you can observe agricultural, barren, and wild landscapes rich in flora and fauna.

The Marquis' Palace, located in the historic center of Ortodonico, is an example of medieval architecture, notable for its imposing tower and elegance. The territory is characterized by a wide variety of environments, from the coast to the hills, from the valleys to the woods, which offer endless possibilities for discovery. In addition, Montecorice boasts gastronomic excellences such as the precious White Fig of Cilento, an unforgettable sensory experience for lovers of good food. Montecorice is a perfect place for beach lovers, with its seaside hamlets that offer crystal-clear waters and a wide variety of environments. Baia Arena is a unique example of a beach, with white sand and many plants adorning the sand. The beach of San Nicola a Mare is located near the marina and is the starting point for excursions and fishing trips during the summer. The beach of Agnone is a mix of sand and pebbles and is located in front of the main square of the village. Finally, the beach of Capitello is a fascinating environment, characterized by the Flysch of Cilento, a typical stepped rock that creates a unique setting.
