Campomarino, Administrative commune in Molise, Italy.
Description
Campomarino is a commune in the province of Campobasso in Molise and consists of two distinct areas. The elevated village sits inland, while a coastal zone called Campomarino Lido extends down to the Adriatic.
History
The area belonged to the Samnites from 600 BC until it became part of Roman administration. These early settlements formed the foundations that shaped the region for centuries to come.
Culture
The town preserves its Arbëreshë heritage, representing a distinct Albanian-Italian community that settled in the region during historical migrations from the Balkans. This presence shapes the character and local customs you encounter today.
Practical
The municipality can be reached by public transportation from larger cities, and accommodations are available in both areas. The inland village offers local dining experiences, while the coastal zone suits water activities.
