Pizzomunno

Puglia

Standing nearly 25 metres tall right beside the beach, this monolith is the subject of a well-known local legend about a fisherman turned to stone after the loss of his beloved. It anchors views along Vieste's long sandy beach and is one of the most recognisable natural landmarks on the Gargano coast.
