Vasto — Palazzo d'Avalos & Centro Storico

Abruzzo

Vasto's old town sits on a bluff above the Costa dei Trabocchi, its centrepiece the Renaissance Palazzo d'Avalos and adjoining terraced belvedere gardens looking straight down to the Adriatic. It's a level, easy walk distinct from the beach-level trabocchi fishing platforms covered further along the coast.
