Isole Tremiti, Archipelago in Adriatic Sea, Italy

The Tremiti Islands consist of five distinct landmasses: San Domino, San Nicola, Capraia, Cretaccio, and Pianosa, spanning less than 2 square miles in total.

Emperor Augustus selected these islands as the exile location for his granddaughter Julia the Younger, who spent her final twenty years there in confinement.

The Abbey of Santa Maria a Mare on San Nicola Island, established by Benedictine monks in 1045, remains a central religious monument of the archipelago.

Visitors can reach the islands through regular ferry services from Termoli, Vieste, and Rodi Garganico, or by helicopter flights from Foggia to San Domino Heliport.

The islands maintain a permanent population of 454 residents who preserve traditional fishing practices and prepare regional dishes with fresh seafood from surrounding waters.
