Formia is an Italian town of 36,331 inhabitants in the province of Latina in Lazio. Mount Altino rises in the municipal territory, which reaches 1,368 m a.s.l. at the top.


"O temperate dulce Formiae litus ..", the mildness of the climate declaimed by Martial in the epigram dedicated to his friend Apollinare and his Villa Formiana is not a simple poetic expression but a reality; thanks to its position on the sea, protected by Gaeta to the west and by the hills behind it, Formia boasts an enviable climatic condition, which together with the beaches of Vindicio, Acquatraversa, S. Janni and Gianola make it a sought-after tourist destination.
