Piana del Sele, Paestum

Campania

The mouth of the Sele river below the Greek temples of Paestum (UNESCO) is a wild coastal wetland — water buffalo graze the marsh (producing the original Campania mozzarella), white stork nests in the poplar grove, and the beach is wild sand backed by dunes. The three Greek temples of Paestum (600 BC) are visible from the beach. Dogs welcome on the beach.
