The Cave area in Sperlonga is perhaps one of my all time favorite climbing areas in the far south. There are three specific sectors in the area, Muro bianco (the white wall), Avancorpi, and the Arenauta area along the beach. You can climb here all year but only at the cave in the summer, but the rock does consume your skin rather quickly. There are lots of fun moves and easier stuff to warm up on and for rest days. Plus it is right on the beach.
