As Italian author and journalist Guido Piovene once wrote, the name Palinuro comes from the name of the helmsman of Aeneas, Palinurus, who met a tragic end in the verses of Virgil’s Aeneid. He also praised the beauty of the gulf with its small, tropical beaches, which he considered unique in Europe. Would you like to find out more about the myths and legends of Palinuro?
