Rodi Garganico is a town in the province of Foggia, Apulia, south-eastern Italy. It is located in the Garfano National Park and is known as the holiday centre of Garganico.
The town has a long history and has been inhabited since prehistoric times. However, there are mixed views on the origins of Rodi. According to 19th century historian Michelangelo Manicone, Rodi’s origins are connected to the Dauni ancient people, while others suggest is was the Greek colonists from Rhodes who founded the town.
With a mild climate, picturesque landscape and clean clear sea, Rodi Garganico is now a popular seaside resort, offering several long sandy beaches on both the north and south sides of the town suitable for adults and children.
The Italian island of San Domino lies in the Isole Tremiti Archipelago in the Adriatic Sea. There are five islands in the archipelago and they are San Domino, St. Nicholas, Cretaccio, Capraia and Pianosa, and collectively the islands form a commune of Italy's Province of Foggia and form part of the Gargano National Park. The island's can trace their history back to the Iron Age although in the Middle Ages the archipelago was ruled by the Abbey of Santa Maria a Mare (Holy Mary of the Sea) at San Nicholas island which is thought to have been founded in the 9th century by Benedictine monks from Montecassino.
The island's were used for the detention of political prisoners during Mussolini's Fascist regime. Today, the islands are an important tourist destination because of their crystal clear warm waters. Of the islands in the archipelago San Domino is the most developed island for tourism and has the only sand beach in the archipelago.
