Holidays to Tropea give you all the beachy goodness of Calabria, with crystal-clear waters and a dose of old Italian charm.
Nestled on the edge of Italy's big toe in the scenic Calabria region, aptly known as Coast of the Gods, Tropea's a world of beaches, piazzas and quaint little churches. It's got wisteria-covered balconies, pastel-painted facades and – most importantly – unforgettable sea views.
Beach lovers be warned, Tropea's bays are so picture-perfect you'll find it hard to leave. Wander down the hillside to reach a fairy tale sight – beaches with sands so white they could've been plucked from The Caribbean. Not to mention the sparkling turquoise waves that lap at the shore.
Santa Maria dell'Isola Monastery sits on the peak of a rocky sea outcrop like a mighty crown jewel – a photo-op must. Down in the town, be sure to try Tropea's edible attraction – its signature onion and cuttlefish gelato.
Tropea’s beach boasts glistening white sands that gently spill into the glittering blue waters of the sea. From the shore, there is an impressive view of the church of Santa Maria dell’Isola. This church is a former Benedictine sanctuary and is built on a crag of land jutting out to the sea. Not only is it the perfect spot if you’re looking for some shade from the midday sun but is also a lovely sight to behold when it’s all lit up in the evening.
