The Sele is a river in southwestern Italy. Originating from the Monti Picentini in Caposele,[1] it flows through the region of Campania, in the provinces of Salerno and Avellino. Its mouth is in the Gulf of Salerno, on the Tyrrhenian Sea, at the borders between the municipalities of Eboli and Capaccio (not too far from Paestum), in the beginning point of Cilentan Coast. -- From Wikipedia
