What people say

"Tropea is located on the southwestern coast of Calabria overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. Here you will get the best of both worlds - city and sea. The town is famous for its beautiful beaches with fine, white sand and crystal-clear, turquoise waters set against a backdrop of dramatic cliffs that offer breathtaking views. The coastline is also dotted with hidden coves and grottoes, making it a popular destination for adventurers! The historic center is also an adventure, with a labyrinth of narrow, cobblestone streets lined with traditional Italian houses and quaint shops. Local Calabrian specialties such as 'nduja (a spicy spreadable salami), fresh seafood, and locally grown red onions, are a celebrated product of the region."
