Palinuro.
Reality and legend merge in this extraordinary place where Ulysses once stopped to listen to the song of the sirens and Virgil told tale of Palinurus, or Palinuro, who was betrayed by the God of Sleep and fell into the deep-blue sea. Located around the cape of the same name, Palinuro is nestled in the midst of a stunning natural setting, boasting colourful cottages, lanes, paths, and ancient towers that bear silent witness to a glorious past.
