Photo Saturday: The Beach at Sperlonga

Beach at Sperlonga

It’s a hot mid-summer weekend in Rome and despite the fact that the much-anticipated bi-annual sales started today, most Romans have headed out of town in search of cool breezes and fresh air, whether in the monti or at the mare.  We’ve reached that part of the Roman summer in which getting away from it all is on everyone’s mind.

This is as true at the eCool Compound as anywhere in Rome, so we were extremely pleased when photographer Susan Sanders suggested that we treat eCool readers to this refreshing view of sand and surf at Sperlonga.  Taken from the town of Sperlonga, which towers above beaches that stretch to its north and its south, the photograph shows the Angolo Beach and, at its far end, the cave used as a dining hall by the Roman Emperor Tiberius.
