Vico del Gargano and San Menaio:
sea, nature and traditions

Vico del Gargano is known as one of the most beautiful villages in Italy for its characteristic historic town centre divide into three medieval quarters; Civita, Terra and Casale; a town rich in traditions, including the celebrations for the feast day of patron St Valentine during which the town streets are adorned with local citrus branches and the evocative procession of the Messa Pazza on Good Friday. Part of Vico del Gargano, on the coast road between Peschici and Rodi Garganico, San Menaio is first among seaside tourist destinations on the Gargano.

Several lookout towers, built to watch out for incursions, mainly Saracen, remain in fairly well preserved state; in particular the towers of Monte Pucci and of Preposti. Among the citrus groves and pinewoods of Pineta Marzini numerous villas lie hidden where the blue sea and the green woodlands make for evocative surroundings. During a stay at a Consorzio Gargano Ok Hotel at San Menaio you will be able to enjoy unforgettable days by the sea as well as comfortably reach both the town and the nearby beach at Calenella, also part of Vico del Gargano.
