In Ventotene, the Ferragosto… arrives early!
There is great excitement around here for Ferragosto! But what did you understand? Not the real one! “Another Ferragosto”, the film coming out on March 7 in theaters directed by Paolo Virzì, filmed on the wonderful island of Ventotene.
Do you remember “Ferie d’agosto”? It was released 27 years ago. The Livorno director has filmed the sequel and the island of Ventotene has once again become a holiday destination on film, just as it has always been in reality.
A holiday in Ventotene and in general in the Archipelago of the Pontine Islands remains a great must for tourists and vacationers from all over the world. Loved by directors, writers, and artists attracted by the unique landscapes, it retains its atmosphere suspended between reality and myth.
Like the Molino and Mazzalupi families of Virzì, we also return for a vacation in Ventotene, the island of the Sirens that sinks its origins in Homeric myth. How can one not fall in love with its enormous natural heritage, its crystal-clear waters, and its ancient and modern history?
A paradise for sea lovers, with water sports, diving, snorkeling, and coves that can be reached on foot like the black beach and Cala Rossano. A safe harbor for the more contemplative spirits, who love to get lost among the alleys of the village or in a museum, among the ruins of Roman villas and aqueducts.
And what about the charm of the former Santo Stefano Prison, the Gateway to Europe where the first idea of a united Europe was born?
Ventotene is an enchanted place that remains in the heart. Word of Virzì! An ideal place for a trip easily reachable if you are on vacation in Terracina.
If you want to return to a place of the heart to live or relive the same sensations, if you love relaxation and the enchantment of nature, here in Terracina you have the route already traced towards this slice of happiness.
