Both images show tower of Thurgju at Capu Rosso near the bay of Porto. First was taken from Calanches - a labirynth of fantasticly eroded rocks. We hiked to a viewpoint high above the bay to watch the rocks in evening light. The second one was made from the road to the beach of Arone, past Capo Rosso. It shows the spectacular location of the watch tower - one of the 87 that warned the inhabitants of the coming pirates. We climbed to the top of the tower the following day.

This one shows how deeply we were moved by the scenery ;) the farthest peninsula is the nature reserve of Scandola.
