Small and inconspicuous Caprioli is a perfect place for beach holidays. Long and wide sandy "Saline" beach stretches out so-to-speak at its doorstep. The beach is popular with both locals and guests, which is partly also due to its well organized lidi.
As the gorgeous and untouched landscape off the fine beaches merges into gentle, green hills, the holiday homes you can book with us at Caprioli, which is part of the comune of Pisciotta, offer a fantastic view of the sea.
The local association "Kenotafion" has made it its duty to keep the sights of ancient Caprioli from being forgotten. In the village, which lies a bit hidden away above the sea, a palazzo dating from the 17th century, a Lucanian burial site, a small, 200-year-old castle and the remains of a windmill wait to be discovered. Look out for the traces of historic Caprioli - you might be surprised.
For your daily shopping you need not necessarily go to Pisciotta or to neighboring Palinuro. Small, but well stocked stores are found at Caprioli, too, as well as at the nearby villages. There is a supermarket, for example, at Santa Caterina, right on the main road; good parking facilities are available right in front of the store.
A good pizzeria ("Il Principe"), a bar and a restaurant are also found at Santa Caterina. They are in general open year-round, as is restaurant Valle di Marco at Caprioli. Another place to go to at Caprioli is pizzeria "Oasi".
Somewhat above Santa Catarina, at San Nicola, you might stop by the butchery "Peppe Carni". Locals consider it to be one of the best in the area.
