Monument to the Bather of Vasto

Highlight • Monument

This original work is a tribute to female beauty and represents a girl adjusting her bathing suit before diving into the waters of the Gulf of Vasto. The monument consists of a bronze statue placed on the rock of Scaramuzza and was built in 1979 by the Abruzzese sculptor Aldo D'Adamo. The statue is often mistakenly called "The Little Mermaid", perhaps due to its resemblance to the symbolic work of Copenhagen.

Trabocco Cungarelle

Highlight • Structure

The trabocco or travocco is an imposing construction made of Aleppo pine wood typical of the areas of the middle Adriatic, moldable, capable of withstanding the saltiness and the strong gusts of the mistral that beat the Adriatic. Consisting of a platform jutting out into the sea anchored to the rock by large trunks from which two or more long arms, called antennas, stretch out, suspended a few meters from the water, which support a huge tight-meshed network: the "balance". The different characterization of the coastline has defined the distinction of different typologies: this one, the Abruzzo one, is distinguished precisely by being positioned transversely with respect to the coast to which it is connected by walkways.

Casarza Beach

Highlight • Beach

The Casarza beach is stony with cliffs close to the shore and is among the most beautiful and evocative of the entire Costa dei Trabocchi for the sea among the most uncontaminated in Italy, not only in Abruzzo. The Via Verde Costa dei Trabocchi cycle / pedestrian path insists on this stretch, which is nearing completion, I hope by autumn 2021.

Punta Aderci Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

It is impossible not to stop, as soon as you start the bike route, to admire the spectacle of nature from the sea view balcony of Punta Aderci

This stretch of the Adriatic coast of Vasto Marina is very important for the development of the future cycle/pedestrian path Via Verde Costa dei Trabocchi, in the 5.5 km stretch that connects the entrance to the Vignola beach to the former Vasto railway station marina in Piazza Fiume.
The stretch I recorded is 1.21 km from Vignola to the first arch of Canale beach, but since it is now closed to the public, it is impossible to pass through, so I expect the Province of Chieti to make the tunnels safe to then be able to map the entire 5.5 km stretch.
