Tropea is one of the most beautiful towns in Calabria comes into
view in the south of the Tyrrhenian coast. Austere and majestic,
Tropea rises out of the promontory of Monte Poro which lies between
the two gulfs of Sant'Eufemia and Gioa. Tropea overlooks a mirror of
sky-blue, crystal-clear sea, with its incredible rocks: La Pizzuta,
Formicoli, San Leonardo and Isola Bella, the Tropea symbol. The
Tropea 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, bougainvillaea, verbenas, lime trees, jasmine and other
sweet-smelling Mediterranean plants. In Tropea apart from the
limpid, unpolluted sea, Tropea itself offers 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 singular legends.
