On the trailThe ground here breathes sulphur. Yellow crusts sit on the rock above the sea, the air smells of struck matches, and an oak wood runs down to a stretch of shore nobody has built on.
The smell is strong and the vents are no place to linger with small children; the beaches of Anzio are just up the coast if you want plain sea.
Anzio at its real position from Rome, with everywhere else we list behind it — so you can see how far out this one is.
