Sorrento

The Greeks first settled the Sorrento peninsula and named it Sirentium. They believed the gorgeous blue waters between Sirentium and the Isle of Capri were alive with mermaids - sirens - hence, the name.

From our perch on the high road above these same blue waters, we could see clearly to the bottom. Alas, no mermaids, but it was invitingly blue and green. And we were so high up that we were actually above a heliocopter passing by.
