| The Lido del Faro‚ is set amongst jagged rocks like a jewel in a casket |
 |
It is one of the more beautiful and exclusive bathing establishments, built in 1971 by Ercole D‚Esposito and rebuilt in 1976, after having been totally destroyed by a stormy sea.
This jewel doesn‚t alter, in any way, the natural beauty of the countryside, in fact the restaurant has been made out of the rocks and the swimming pool built, making use of a natural cavity. Its congenial location allows one to enjoy the sun from sunrise to sunset. It lies at the bottom of the cliff of the Migliera, where seagulls are continually circling above, and overlooks a natural bay, where the owners, Nello and Renata are pleased to entertain their many guests. |

More than once it has received the "European Blue Flag"‚ in recognition
of its environmental values and the quality of its services in tourism. |
|
It is surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation, which becomes even more spectacular around the defensive walls, built by the English to defend the island and the Torre della Guardia, built in the fourteenth century for the sighting of the Saracen and Turkish pirates. To the southwest, on the Pino headland, there are the ruins of one of the fortifications built by the French in 1808 and which have been restored recently.
The environmental value and the ability of the owners have made the place one of the most established and patronized on the island and the numerous reviews on magazines and newspapers are its tangible proof.
