Porto Palermo Castle

On Wednesday went to the beach in the morning, and in the afternoon to Porto Palermo Castle, triangular-shaped, 19th century fortress built on an isolated island that is now connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of land. It felt wonderful to be there, especially that it was sunset time and again it was so quiet. The castle is definitely worth visiting when staying in Himare or another nearby seaside town. From Himare it's a 20 minute ride on a public bus and it costs £2 one way.
When we left the castle at about 18:00, the sky was incredible.
