In Cilento there is a fishing village called Marina di Camerota, a pleasant coastal location which still offers kilometers of coastline with rocks, spires, pinnacles, gentle beaches of white sand, multi - coloured grottos, cliff faces which plummet into a limpid sea, valleys bulging with perfumed lentisco, juniper and myrtle, terraced olive groves hanging against a blue sky and stony slopes bathed in the heady scent of thorny broom, but above all it offers an eternally gentle climate. Marina di Camerota represents this uncontaminated beauty together with the modern services which its visitors require. |

The handcrafts produced in and around Camerota are of particular interest. Scultptures made of olive wood have been crafted for decades, for the pleasure of travellers to this area. Objects made of stone, olive wood sculpting, lace making and embroidery are traditional activities which are still carried out. The basket weavers are renowned, as are the potters with their production of “ mommoli”, traditional vases and objects connected with the gastronomic tradition. Marina di Camerota is also an important centre for deep sea diving. |
