Sperlonga, Italy, is home to fewer than 4,000 full-time residents, making it a prime place to go for some peace and solitude. Its shoreline is also a Blue Flag certified beach, meaning its water quality, sustainability, and environmental management practices are among the best in the world.

With this season, we wanted to capture the feeling of being in the Mediterranean-the light, the energy, the colors of the coast.
