The Bay of Trentova

The Bay of Trentova is one of the most sought after things when you find out what to see in Agropoli. In fact, this place is a natural paradise, capable of leaving you speechless. Anyone who comes to Agropoli wants to visit this location and be fascinated by it. The Bay is surrounded by greenery and is bathed by clear and spectacular water. Taking a bath here is exceptional, a decidedly regenerating experience. You can spend an entire day here, without regretting it.

There are two "inconveniences" that you must consider before visiting the Trentova Bay. The first is choosing when to go. Being one of the most popular attractions in Agropoli, you can often find crowds and tourists here. Therefore, opt for periods that are not very high season, perhaps on midweek days if you can. Otherwise, you have to get here very early to be able to get a good seat.

The second “flaw” concerns how to get to the place. Unfortunately you have to reach the bay with your own transport: if you don't have any and you travel by public transport, well, it could be difficult to get to this paradise.

Old Town

The first thing to see in Agropoli is certainly the historic center or ancient medieval village. Visiting the heart of the town, you will feel like taking a step back in time. The center is located at the top of a promontory and offers a magnificent panorama of the coast.

Furthermore, if you want to enjoy this panorama to the fullest and take spectacular photographs, you absolutely must stop at the Scaloni climb. This is the main and most popular street to reach the ancient village, a flight of very large stairs that directly overlooks the sea.

The historic center of Agropoli has a magical atmosphere and losing yourself among the alleys, medieval buildings and city walls will be an unforgettable experience.

The Elephant Cave

The Elephant Cave is a fantastic rock formation that you can see in Agropoli. It is magnificent to admire the power of the rocks which seem to recall that of enormous pachyderms.

The cave was formed over the years and you can admire it at the end of the city, skirting Agropoli by sea. To linger on the many details of the cave, the best thing to do is to rent a kayak or canoe.

Of course, it can be slightly tiring to reach the cave, especially if you don't have much experience with such aquatic means. However, the more adventurous will love this activity and enjoy the Elephant Cave!

Licina beach

Among the beaches you must see in Agropoli there is also Licina beach. It is not a very large beach, in fact it is small and to get there you have to go up several stairs.

This is a great place you can try if you want to go to a beach that is not popular with tourists but loved by local residents. It is no coincidence that this is also called the beach of the Agropolesi.

Obviously, the water that washes the beach is transparent. Incredibly, you can admire the bottom without needing goggles or snorkeling equipment. In short, if you love the sea, visiting this beach is a must that you shouldn't miss.
