Sant'Agnello
Despite its small size, Sant'Agnello attracts quite a number of tourists each
year thanks to its strategic position along the beautiful coast of Sorrento.
It is also popular due to its vicinity to some of the most popular tourist
destinations in southern Italy, such as Positano, Capri, Ercolano, Amalfi, Napoli,
Caserta and Pompeii.
Sant'Agnello boasts both natural beauty and cultural and historical wealth.
Indeed, the beautiful Mediterranean acts as a stupendous backdrop for the town's
historical center.
La Marinella beach is a favorite with tourists who wish to simply relax and
get away from the frenetic routines of daily life.
In the area around the beach, you can walk along pathways that take you into
the countryside, where you can hear wild birds singing and farmers working in
the fields.
The town is located along the slopes of a mountain, and climbing up onto the
various peaks in the various districts of Sant'Agnello will provide for some
breathtaking sights.
For those looking for some historical sightseeing, you can check out the Parochial
Church of Colli di Fontanelle, constructed in Baroque style, as well as the
Chiesa dei Frati Cappuccini, built in 1586.
