This town Acitrezza, just 𝟏𝟐 𝐤𝐦 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐂𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚, is the ideal half day trip for beautiful photos, walking through 𝐛𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬.

If you know some of Italian literature, in Acitrezza you can visit the house originally set in the 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥 "𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐚".

Acitrezza is well provided with all tourist facilities, as gift shops (to buy those refering to the sea and Ulysses' legend) and lots of restaurants (with fresh local fish).

The perfect half day trip also could include a visit to the 𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐀𝐜𝐢 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨, with its Medieval Fortress (3 euro ticket).

For perfect photos of the town, I advise to come in the morning, avoiding the afternoon or evening (when you have the sun on the side of the town).

Here are the steps shown on the video, recordered in Acitrezza late February 2022.

If you come to Acitrezza 𝐛𝐲 𝐛𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐫, you arrive at Via Provinciale, where you should park (0.60 cents / hour).
