FROM TROPEA, THE PEARL OF CALABRIA, TO CAPO VATICANO
Leaving Tropea, have a stop at the small village of Santa Domenica di Ricadi (pic n°5). Its beach called Scalea has been elected as the most beautiful beach in Calabria! Not only because of the beautiful scenery and the crystal clear sea water but also because the whole area is a location of great historic interest and where many finds from the Paleolithic have already been recovered.
Capo Vaticano (pic n°6) is about 12 kilometers away from Tropea and, despite it lacks a real town or historic center, it is a nice place to go if you want to be amazed by wonderful views, especially at sunset.
Absolutely do not miss the lighthouse of Capo Vaticano (pic n°6), built on the very top of a rock over 110 meters above sea level which is the "real" place called "Capo Vaticano". Breathtaking views over the Tyrrhenian Sea and not only: from here, in good and clear weather conditions, you can even see
Volcano Etna in Sicily, the spectacular island of Stromboli and the whole archipelago of the
Aeolian Islands.
