Costa Viola
Calabria, heir of Magna Graecia, combines a historical-cultural and gastronomic heritage with sunny landscapes overlooking two seas. On the Costa Viola, where the Aspromonte plunges into the Tyrrhenian Sea, the waters take on purplish shades described by Plato, among beaches, cliffs, and views of the Strait and the Aeolian Islands, in a place suspended between myth and history. Between Villa San Giovanni and Palmi, there are trails and viewpoints (Tracciolino, Monte Sant’Elia), archaeological sites (Parco dei Tauriani), caves and beaches, iconic villages like Scilla and Chianalea, and traditions such as swordfish fishing and Bagnara nougat.
