BAY OF VALLUGOLA
Vallugola Bay is a wonderful inlet located between the promontories of Gabicce and Casteldimezzo.
Fascinating and evocative for its natural beauty, it is characterized by a bay with a pebble and sand beach.
Vallugola is a small paradise on the Adriatic Sea.
It will be able to amaze you for its being so unique and uncontaminated, it is the ideal place to rediscover the tranquility and pleasure of good living.
It is said that, the origin of the name is linked to several hypotheses, including; some argue that the name derives from "Valle Lunula, or" Valle Oscura "(perhaps due to its dense woodland vegetation); while according to another hypothesis, vallugola could derive from a transmormation of" valley of the uvula ", with reference to echo that can be covered here.
But there is something much more intriguing and mysterious that links the name of this locality to the events of the disappeared city of Valbruna.
It is said that, in 1600, Raffaele Adimari found remains of bricks belonging to the fantastic submerged city of Valbruna.
This submerged city occasionally resurfaces in searches during scuba diving and in the random finds of fishermen's nets.
It is the remains of cities, columns, capitals, bricks, walls and other stones that feed the legend of this lost town.
Baia Vallugola is an enchanting place where the suggestion of the sea and nature combine with the pleasure of an intimate and welcoming tourist place where you can stop and enjoy the small pleasures of life.
