Discover Tropea and Capo Vaticano, two “gems” of Calabria’s Tyrrhenian Coast.
Your experience begins in Tropea. Known as the “Pearl of the Tyrrhenian Sea,” it is one of the most popular tourist destinations.
The name of this town was first mentioned by Pliny the Elder in the 1st century A.D. Explore its historic centre, which is rich in ancient palazzos and typical small shops. Among the oldest buildings stands the Cathedral, built in the Norman era.
Inside, you will find important works of art, such as the painting of Our Lady of Romania, the patron saint of Tropea.
Stop off at the terrace overlooking the sea, located in the very heart of the city. From here, you can admire the Church of Santa Maria dell’Isola, surrounded by white sand and the sea. On a clear day, the Aeolian Islands appear on the horizon, adding even more magic to the landscape.
Continue your journey along the coast to Capo Vaticano, a place renowned for its untamed natural beauty.
Here, you can visit one of the most beautiful spots, the famous “Faro” (lighthouse), which offers one of the best panoramic views in Calabria, featuring cliffs, coves, and crystal-clear sea.
