Fiordo di Furore
A cleft in the rock where the Schiato stream meets the sea, with a small beach, fishermen's houses and a bridge about thirty metres high.
The story
Furore is called «the village that isn't there» because it has no centre: its houses are scattered over the slope. In 1948 Roberto Rossellini filmed «The Miracle» here with Anna Magnani, an episode of the film «L'amore», and the fishing hamlet still remembers their love affair. Every year divers in an international high-diving competition leap from the bridge. The village is also decorated with murals by artists invited over the years.
Why go
One of the most striking images of the coast, reached by a long stairway.
