What spectacularly scenic land is Abruzzo, lying between mountains to the west and the coast to the east in Italy's south: there are (many) reasons why it's been lauded as among the top dozen places on the entire planet to live in or retire to… Nearby Vasto is one of many ancient towns and needs at least a couple of days, one to see its cathedral and wander around the vast gardens of the Palazzo D'Avalos; the other to take the spectacularly scenic stroll along the sands to another jaw-dropping stretch of sand around the lighthouse at Punta Penna, in the Natural Reserve of Punta Aderci. The local cuisine of this coastal region is based around fish and seafood, so be sure to sample as much as is humanly possible of its clams, mussels, squid, prawns, sole, and fish soup – and get to the local covered market for other Abruzzo famed foods like its cheese, charcuterie and Abruzzo lamb and mutton. Full-on foodie? Sniff around the Pig Museum in the beaut town of Carpineto Sinello. A bit further afield, hike off lazy beach days and much Abruzzo food with walks around the scenic rural villages in the Maiella mountains.
