The "Cristo Redentore" or Christ the Redeemer on Mount Blaise in Maratea is the second largest in the world and the only one in Europe. Standing 72 feet high and 62 feet in width it can be seen for miles on its mountain perch. We also visit the basilica of Saint Blaise (San Biagio) which dates to the 7th century. The mountain stands at just over 2000 feet,, and on this day, we had clouds below and above us. This is a must-see when in Maratea.

The Maratea beaches offer a splendid opportunity to work on your tan. Rent an Umbrella and chair and you are set for the day. Great views of the ocean and small islands. Oh look, behind you the hills are on fire. Scrub brush perhaps set on fire by a careless cigarette, are working their way across the hills. The hills, too steep for vehicles, they use the Canadair fire-fighting airplane. We can watch the ocean, pretty girls in bikinis or airplanes putting out fires. Pass me another beer.
