I found myself transported back in time, standing before an imposing statue of Polyphemus at the Villa of Tiberius. The ruins of this once-lavish villa offer a glimpse into Roman opulence, with stunning grottoes carved into the mountainside overlooking the sea. Just beyond the historic site, I watched as local youths played soccer on a sandy cove, blending past and present seamlessly. Perfect for August, the sunny +24°C weather makes it ideal to explore these ancient sites while soaking up the Mediterranean sun.
