71010, San Paolo di Civitate
Been here?
This is a quiet, flat picnic area near a chapel, with shaded tables and benches. A short gravel road leads to additional parking for a few vans, hidden from the main road. Recent visitors report extensive litter and no bins, although the site is otherwise secluded and peaceful.

Given how difficult it is to find an isolated, quiet place in nature on the coast, this place is perfect. You just have to overlook the amount of litter scattered across the ground.Translating
The site itself is great, shaded by pines, set back from the road and under the watchful protection of the Madonna—but what a lot of litter! It is everywhere in the picnic area, which is truly sad. We always do our best to clean up spots as soon as we arrive, but this is despairing. What a shame, because the stop is really worthwhile.Translating
Not just a picnic spot, but also a really good place to spend the night. Up a small gravel road, there is a good parking area hidden from the road. When we were there, local youths arrived and rode motorcycles off-road. They stayed for about an hour. They seemed friendly.Translating
We were looking for a secluded place to avoid the fireworks on December 31 for our dog, and this was perfect. Far from towns, safe, and very quiet. We stayed for two days and nobody came.Translating
Great spot. A few walkers. In the middle of nowhere. In the surrounding countryside there are abandoned houses and not a soul around. Flooding? Picnic tables in the shade under the pines. No bin, so please respect this place.Translating
Very quiet place to spend the night, a little too well lit for our taste when sleeping with the windows open. Children’s play area farther up the path in the woods.Translating
The place is very large and pleasant for sleeping, but PLEASE BRING GARBAGE BAGS AND PICK UP THE LITTER! There was so much of it—we did this early in the morning. But there is still so much left. It is incredibly sad. What a shameful state of humanity. Take your rubbish with you and put it in a bin! Nature cannot digest rubbish!Translating
Very quiet night. Woken early by lots of loud chirping. Unfortunately, there isn’t even a bin on site, despite this being a picnic area with tables and benches.Translating
Honestly, considering the spots along the coast, and after driving around for an hour and a half using satellite view on Maps, we ended up here—and what a delight.Translating
