Pinetamare, also called Villaggio Coppola, is a part of the municipality of Castel Volturno located on Litorale Domitio, along via Domitiana and only 25 kms away from Naples. The site is an example of illegal building site carried out on a large scale in the area. It takes its name from the Coppola bros, businessmen in Casal di Principe, who in the mid-sixties started the construction of a multi-purpose seaside tourism centre, taking inspiration from the Baia Domizia urban centre started a few years earlier, but situated 40 kms further north. Skyscrapers, sea view villas, access road to the village and inside the village itself, electricity and sewage systems, a water treatment plant (the only one in the area at that time), bars, discos, cinemas all contributed to Pinetamare being seen as the California of Italy.

On a raised terrain, like a terrace overlooking the sea next to the old dock, finally stands the Saraceno park. The pride of Pinetamare, the building park is a residential area made up of thirty three-storey buildings, which used to host Naples-stationed NATO families for almost twenty years.
