Detailed itinerary
1

the Abbey of San Michele (XVI sec.) houses many works of art. Built in the 11th century and restored between the 17th and 19th centuries, this one-time Benedictine abbey houses a small museum with some arresting pictures created in gratitude by shipwrecked sailors, plus a church with a spectacular coffered ceiling and an ancient Greek alabaster basin converted into a font.
3
The XVII century port is famous and appreciated for its unique architecture: here you can see a tangle of arches, domes, windows, terraces, balconies, staircases and colorful facades that create a complex of buildings with unique shapes, colors and provision of housing.
