The greatest part about having your own rental car is that you can travel anywhere, anytime. Make full use of your freedom by exploring all there is to do in Maratea. It’s just 20 miles away. Among your first stops here ought to be Statue of Christ the Redeemer, Grotta delle Meraviglie and La Secca Beach. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Potenza, 25 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s San Michele Arcangelo. (But we’re also huge fans of Francesco Stabile Theater and Cathedral of San Gerardo.)
