ABOUT THE AREA - CALABRIA - SOUTH ITALY


Calabria is in the toe of Italy. Its unspoiled scenery is a beautiful combination of hills, mountains, wide sandy beaches, picturesque historic villages, and the wonderful turquoise Tyrrhenian Sea of South Italy.
 
You can enjoy delightful excursions to attractive places such as Paola, Amantea, Belvedere Marittimo, Fiume Freddo, Cosenza, Tropea, Pizzo, Sicily, and the Aeolian Volcano Islands.
 
Stromboli - the most active volcano on Earth
 
The Sila National Park has mountains almost 2,000 m high and are well worth visiting. You can find some interesting links on this page.
 
Several fine ski resorts with excellent ski lift and rental facilities near the holiday apartment are available at Winter.
 

The superb weather conditions of our region allow you to play golf every month of the year.
Enchanting experience in Spring (April-May,) when you can play in the smell of orange flowers, and Autumn-Winter, when you can refresh yourself picking an orange from the trees.

 

In Calabria you get two climates and two holidays in one:
- On the coast is the hot, sunny Mediterranean climate with wide

  sandy beaches. Local agriculture produces excellent local wine and

  food, and the sea produces fresh catches every day.
- Inland, high up in the mountains are virgin pine  forests with
alpine

  cool air and clear mountain streams.

It is amazing that these two climates exist within 20 km of each other!!
