Acciaroli is an Italian hamlet (frazione) of Pollica (Province of Salerno), located in Campania region and the greatest one of its comune.
Acciaroli is a port of Cilento, on the Tyrrhenian Sea, and is the largest in its "comune" (the other is the hamlet of Pioppi). The town is 6 km from Pollica, 20 from Santa Maria di Castellabate, 17 from Velia, 30 from Agropoli, and 70 from Salerno.
The town is a part of "Cilento and Vallo di Diano National Park", which natural environment is composed of "Maquis", typical of mediterranean countries.
It is strongly receptive for tourism, especially on summer; principally because it has gained a national fame due to the quality of its water, which give it the "Blue Flag beach", and the "5 sails" of Legambiente (an Italian environmentalist association) every summer from many years.
Some years after World War II, the place was one of the stays of the writer Ernest Hemingway, during his Italian trips.

You, you, you, you. Our house still stands though your room is empty, our car still goes though you can’t drive it. I thought I knew when you died the sun wouldn’t even want to shine. With you gone who’ll save my days, with you gone where’s reason. I don’t want to feel, I want to feel numb, I don’t want to breath when you don’t. You, you, you, you. My heart’s still beating when yours wont, I saw the morning though you won’t. This can’t be right, I can’t be here, without you what’s left of me? I’ll give you all my heart beats, I’ll give you all my mornings. I don’t want to feel, I want to feel numb, I don’t want to breath when you don’t. Taught me so much, changed the way I think, gave me so much trust, let me so far in. Gave me chances, no one else compares, I’ll be better beside… You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you. I can’t look at her because I see you, I’m angry because she never knew you. I take her to see you every day and we lay flowers on your grave. You were more than my friend, you were my oxygen. I don’t want to feel, I want to feel numb. I don’t want to breathe when you don’t. You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you.
