Marina di Casalvelino lies down on the vast plain of the river Alento surrounded by the wide Velia gulf and the mountains Stella and Gelbison which rises beside her shoulders. Lifting softly your eyes it is possible to see the suggestive ruins of the ancient Elea (well known as Velia for the Romans) , only distant 2 kms from the little town. A warning coasting tower rises on the top of a hill and looks over the port and the beach, sandy on one side and rocky on the other. Everything contributes to make your stay peaceful in this angle of the coast of Cilento where every little thing has still remained natural and where the presence of the sea, with a particular mild climate and a good touristic organization create an oasis of unforgettable peace.
