Before the tourists

These images of Scopello, Sicily,  date from 1972. The place was almost free of tourists and had one restaurant only. To day it's almost overrun with visitors. Nevertheless, the hamlet has retained some of it's flavor and it's still a great place to visit. The view, the water and the food are still unbeatable. These images are from scanned slides.
