[2][3] According to archaeological discoveries [4] the place was so named by the first Greek colonists in the 8th century BC astounded by the rich variety of the flora and fauna.

Set among two promontories, the inlet offers a show of natural wild scenery and, to lines, hostile.

The access in the bay is given by an ample staircase that counts 214 steps, but it is possible to also reach Sorgeto by sea.

Different thermal veins flow in fact along the whole bay, but it is from a single spring that water always gushes out with impetus and in abundance.

22 pools (Thermal, Kneipp, and ocean-water) have been installed according to latest technical and medical knowledge.
