Furore

Introduction

If you travelled back in time to the Middle Ages you would be surprised to see Marina di Furore was a  bustling small trade centre thanks to its location sheltered from pirates and foreign attacks. Water was at hand which favoured flour and paper production. Today Marina di Furore is just a renewed village devoted to fishing.

Some Romans looking for shelter from the Barbarians attacks settled at the fiord’s bottom, a huge crack in the rocks of the Lattari Mountains.  At present part of the village sits  300 up the mountain. It is not one of the most important towns and is not much visited by holidaymakers, therefore it has kept a country like flavour which blends with multicolour walls sporting large pictures on them and modern art.
