Mount Circeo and Sabaudia
Where the Mediterranean landscape meets the sea.
Just a short distance from the olive groves of Colline Pontine, the Circeo promontory and the Sabaudia coastline offer a completely different landscape: dunes, coastal lakes, pine forests, beaches, and Mediterranean scrub. It’s a region best experienced at a leisurely pace, with nature walks, days at the beach, and views that change with the light. Sabaudia is famous for its beaches and Lake Paola, one of Italy’s largest coastal lakes.
