The Southern Italy / Calabria region
Calabria is located in the southwest of Italy (the toe of the Italian boot) It deserves with its unbelievably rich history and culture to be more known than it is today. The nature, people, history and the traditions are what make Calabria what it is. Holidays in the region of Calabria offer a variety of different landscapes, from the stunning coastal areas, with craggy cliffs set against the brilliant blue seas, to the rugged mountainous inland, dotted with traditional villages, and even a small ski area.
The region of Calabria is flanked by both the Tyrrenian Sea on the western side and the Ionian Sea on the east, with the towns on this coast having a strong Greek influence. The major resorts in the region of Calabria include Scalea, a typical seaside resort with plenty of tourist facilities and Tropea, one of the most beautiful towns with numerous sandy bays. Amantea and Diamante are both popular historic towns, and the capital of the region of Calabria is its' largest town, Reggio di Calabria.
Feudo Montalto Golf Club is situated in Limbadi, a small town near Capo Vaticano and Tropea.
The 9 hole course, designed by Baldovino Dassu, has been built in on an old farm and lays among orange and olive trees. For a small fee of up to €30 per person, you can spend the day golfing here on this amazing course, once your game is completed; your fee allows you to play as many rounds as you wish.
The Sila is the name of the mountainous plateau located in Calabria, it occupies part of the provinces of Cosenza, Crotone and Catanzaro, and is divided into the Sila Greca, Sila Grande and Sila Piccola ranges. The Sila houses the eponymous National Park. Camigilatello is a classical alpine village, a great spot for exploring amazing densely wooded areas during the summer, if you enjoy hiking then you will love the 3 mile climb up to Monte Botte Donato and take in the breath taking views of the Ionian and Tyrhennian seas. In winter, the Sila’s becomes one of Italy’s best cross-country skiing areas. The season can start from November right through to the end of February and with slopes as long as 7km in length, it is a great experience for both advanced and intermediate skiers alike.
Gerace is inland from the coastal town of Locri, but its elevation allows views of the sea. Gerace is sometimes called "the Florence of the south" for its art and architecture or the "city of saints" for its religious buildings.
If you wish to see one of the largest religious buildings in Calabria then you must pay a visit to Gerace's Norman Cathedral.
Tropea is a town in the Vibo Valentia province of Calabria. Tropea is well known for its miles of white sandy beaches and turquoise coloured water and of course it is nicknamed the home of the 'Red Onion'.
There is also an annual Blues festival in the centre of Tropea towards the end of August, live bands playing in an open air atmosphere most nights during the festival. Tropea dates back to the 17th century with cobbled narrow streets, charming cafes and a vast amount of souvenirs and fashion shops speckled along the winding and meandering laneways. It’s great to just sit outside one of the cafes of an evening, have a frothy cappuccino and watch all of the Italians enjoying their evening stroll through the streets of Tropea.
Like a fractured metatarsal on the foot of Italy, the Tropea promontory juts out into the turquoise Tyrrhenian Sea, its superb white-sand beaches shielded by high cliffs. The town of Tropea pulls off a rare trick by managing to be both fashionable and unspoilt, a maze of steep narrow streets, Renaissance churches and yellow-stone palazzi.
Sunday Times put Tropea at number one spot in its ‘Top 20 Beaches’ report in January 2007.
Mini cruises to the Aeolian Isles depart from the port of Tropea/Capo Vaticano around 7:00am on a 350 seater air conditioned motor ship. On this daily trip you get to visit Stromboli, the famous active volcano plus Lipar. Arrive back at Tropea around 19:15pm, a day well spent, don't forget to bring your camera and savour those magic moments.
The region of Calabria has managed to remain relatively untouched and escape mass-tourism, with many of the small hilltop villages and hamlets still enjoying age-old traditions and customs. Cuisine in the region of Calabria tends to be spicy and flavourful, featuring pasta, cheeses and some typically Greek ingredients such as honey and figs, and the area produces sweet white wine. Whilst enjoying a holiday in the region of Calabria, activities include walking, hiking and bird-watching in the national park, horse-riding, rock-climbing and skiing in the mountains, and various water sports such as sailing and scuba- diving along the coast.
Pizzo is another beautiful town just a few minutes’ drive from the apartment, famous for its Chiesa di Piedigrotta, a church completely carved out of the tufo rock near the beach. This Calabrian town is also famous for its tartufo, a special delicious kind of ice cream celebrated with a festival in Pizzo every August.
A visit to a renowned ice cream parlour, Enrico's, situated in Marinella, is a must for all ice cream lovers.
Directly across from Enrico's is a lovely Irish pub, called the Fairywell, during peak times in the summer, there are live acts playing most nights, the atmosphere is great for a night out.
The Tropea / Zambrone area
Zambrone town offers every amenity and has a traditional piazza, bars, pizzeria, fresh meat from the local butcher, fresh fish delivered every day. Just at the entrance to the Amalfi complex you will find a local vegetable supplier, where you can purchase all locally grown fruit and vegetables and buy a large bottle of homemade red wine for only €2.50 Fresh cheese is delivered straight from the dairy twice a week.
Zambrone Marina has many seasonal bars and restaurants, with excellent food and a large selection of locally made wines available.
Priscopio has 2 restaurants, at La Collinetta and Pirapora in season.

Excellent apartment in southern Calabria (Tropea) with balcony with sea view, shared 'private' pool (when we wanted to jump in to the pool during the evenings we were the only ones in there always!!),parking...everything exactly how it was described in advert.. It's a bit outside from the town (nearest shop,restaurants 1km Marina di Zambrone, Tropea 7km) but that was exactly what we were looking for..silence,sea and relax..therefore car is must also if you want to discover Capo Vaticano and other secrets which are a must!! |
Guestbook for Amalfi Apartment
Dear Tom and Paul,
I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed our holiday in Calabria and to say thank you for the way in which you made the whole thing so easy to arrange.
The booking process was very quick and simple with our queries being answered very promptly by e-mail. The apartment was exactly as depicted on the web site. The apartment was first class, very modern, well equipped and clean with superb views over the sea. Thank you for arranging the welcome pack of groceries which was so helpful as we arrived quite late on the Saturday evening.
It was nice to meet you when you called around to check that everything was alright. Throughout we felt that we were well supported and helped with advice on how to make the most of our time in Italy. The sea trip to the Aeolian Islands and Stromboli was a highlight.
All in all we had a great time and would be very happy to recommend your services to anyone else looking for a similar holiday
Regards
Paul Dickinson
