    Church of St. Peter is also a beautiful vantage point towards the sea.

      Located not far from the ship pier. Right next to the church there is a stand with good ice cream and granite (a kind of water ice cream in different fruit flavors)

        This church was dedicated to Saint Peter (SAN PIETRO). Simon, nicknamed Peter (rock), was a fisherman on the Sea of Genesareth when he – together with his brother Andrew – was called by Jesus Christ to be the "fisher of men". According to Catholic understanding, he is the supreme apostle, and the two millennia-long line of popes – currently Francis – are his successors. On statues and paintings Peter is almost always depicted with two keys in his hand, this attribute refers to the Bible passage in Matthew: “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; what you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and what you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven” (chapter 16, verse 19).

        Peter is also known along with Paul as the "Princes of the Apostles", their common feast day in the calendar of saints is June 29th.
