Tour Capo Vaticano beach
Tropea is one of the most beautiful towns in Calabria lies along the south Tyrrhenian coast.
Austere and majestic, Tropea rises out of the promontory of Monte Poro which lies between the two gulfs of Sant’Eufemia and
Gioia.
It overlooks a mirror-like sky-blue, crystal-clear sea, with its incredible rocks: “La Pizzuta”, “Formicoli”, “San Leonardo” and “Isola Bella”.
The wild, white, sandy beaches which snake their way into little grottoes and creeks are interrupted by valleys and fertile, rippling hills full of fruit and citrus fruit trees, onion and vegetable fields, lime trees, bougainvillaea, verbena, jasmine and other sweet-smelling Mediterranean plants.
A part from the limpid, unpolluted sea, Tropea itself has a fascinating historical and artistic profile, thanks to its patrician houses with their impressive entrances adorned by capitals with frescoes by important artists and to the numerous, ancient churches rich in sacred images recalling peculiar local legends.
Its typical little deserted squares, reachable only by way of narrow alleyways and populated by mythical ghosts, take us back to the days of the Saracen invasions.
Tropea, also, received a "five-sail" for the top 10 rating from Legambiente which uses 128 parameters for its yearly quality test. Ratings also take into account natural beauty, contamination but also tourist structures, noise levels and environment-friendly waste systems.

Vacations in Capo
Vaticano Calabria
Capo Vaticano, the last strip of land before the Straits of Messina, thrusts dramatically from the sea, its white rocks battered and eroded by centuries of breakers that have taught sailors to respect and fear this fascinating, almost mysterious place.
Capo Vaticano its majestically enthroned in a turquoise sea, as it dominates the archipelago of the
Aeolian Islands to the north-west, the Gulf of
Lamezia Terme to the north-east, to the south-west the Gulf of
Gioia Tauro and, beyond, the Straits of Messina culminating in
Mount Etna.
This part of Calabria, overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, contains the ancient fascination of a thousand years of history.
The sea that caresses the snow-white beaches and the wildness of the rocks make visitors lose their sense of time, as it conceals beneath its waves the secrets of ancient shipwrecks, the relics of which have frequently been discovered.
Life in the area is dominated by fishing; its waters are visited by the great swordfish, tuna, blue sharks etc. as they cross the
Capo Vaticano every spring.
