Gaeta, Italy: Hidden Gem Coastal Town (Serapo Beach, Borgo Elena, Monti Aurunci)

Gaeta LT, Italia

Gaeta is a historic coastal town on a narrow promontory in southern Lazio, where medieval streets and Byzantine-era monuments meet the Tyrrhenian Sea. Its old quarter, Borgo Elena, clusters around an Aragonese castle overlooking a working harbour, while the Cathedral of Sant'Erasmo and the Temple of Hercules hint at layers of Roman, Norman and Spanish rule.

This video explores three distinct sides of Gaeta: the clear waters and golden sand of Serapo Beach, one of the most celebrated stretches on the Gulf of Gaeta; the atmospheric alleys of Borgo Elena; and the wild limestone ridges of the Monti Aurunci Natural Park rising behind the town, offering hiking trails and sweeping views across the coast.
