CALABRIA WAS THE ANCIENT MAGNA GRAECIA, THE LAND OF THE RIACE BRONZES.

Calabria is the heart of the Mediterranean

Beaches and cliffs alternate along the 800 km long coast of Calabria where the sea is crystal clear and abundant with fish, and waters are mild. Plenty of archaeological remains are still buried under water, guarded by the medieval castles and watchtowers sprinkled on the shore.

Raging streams flow along canyons where visitors can do rafting and canyoning. Natural Parks with their unique ecosystem offer unforgettable sports and nature experiences all year round. Spa waters can do wonders for your body.

Several world-famous influencers were seduced  by the lights and perfumes of Calabria. Mastercard listed the region among the 10 top hidden treasures for 2017; “The Telegraph”and the French “Le Monde”, in an article by Jerome Gautheret, celebrated the “sublime” beauty of Calabrian beaches.

Calabria is a land that for quality and quantity is truly unique – says Lidia Bastianich – Americans are discovering the great quality of food and products of Calabrian enogastronomy.
