What's it like?
This bustling town's relationship with the sea has played a vital role in its history and culture. The distinctive, brightly painted facades of the houses were designed to guide weary fishermen home from afar, and the daily afternoon fish market is a delight. A colourful history saw the Romans first settle here, and the old town with its ancient bridges and gothic church has been declared a historic site. Cool narrow streets lead from flower-adorned balconies to the azure sea. The area is particularly popular with expat property owners, and the town is famous for its mouthwatering locally made chocolate exported around the world. The scenery is stunning, with a mountainous backdrop and surrounding citrus plantations giving way to assorted coves and secluded beaches with sand as fine as talcum powder.
