Built on a rocky promontory, Tropea is the most famous tourist destination in the Calabria region. It boasts some of the most beautiful beaches in Italy, and the crystal-clear waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea shimmer in an incredible turquoise color.

The historic town is a maze of narrow streets lined with historic buildings, restaurants, and souvenir shops. From Tropea, daily excursions are organized both to the Aeolian Islands off Sicily and to nearby coastal areas, such as Capo Vaticano.
