Vieste on the Adriatic coast of Italy

If Italy’s boot-shaped landmass has a spur, that spur is Vieste. The small town sticks out into the Adriatic Sea and may seem as if it’s frozen in some romantic past. That’s due in part to the fact that this seaside village, with the wind-and-water eroded cliffs, is within the boundaries of Gargano National Park. Efforts to preserve the park’s natural beauty have greatly influenced policies intended to protect the town of Vieste as well.
