History edit

The village, first mentioned in the 11th century, was named Casalicchio until 1893. It was renamed Casal Velino in homage to the ancient and nearby town of Velia, whose male demonym is "Velino".[3]

Geography edit

Casal Velino is a hill town located in Cilento and included into its national park, located some km from the Ancient Greek city of Velia.

The municipality borders with Ascea, Castelnuovo Cilento, Omignano, Pollica, Salento and Stella Cilento.[4] It counts the hamlets (frazioni) of Acquavella, Bivio Acquavella, Marina di Casalvelino, Vallo Scalo (shared with Castelnuovo Cilento) and Verduzio.

Another station, Vallo della Lucania-Castelnuovo, is located in Vallo Scalo and is also served by long-distance trains.

The port of Marina di Casalvelino is served by the hydrofoil's line MM6W Naples-Sorrento-Marina di Camerota, part of a local passenger ferry network named Metrò del Mare.[5]
