Tropea stands on an imposing standstone cliff, in a charming position between the Gulf of Sant’Eufemia and Gioia Tauro, and is one of the most artistically interesting and picturesque centres in the Vibo Valentia province.
The area stills holds traces of ancient prehistoric settlements, alongside buildings and burial passages dating back to Greek and Roman times.

Nowadays Tropea is an exclusive seaside resort that also boasts a modern tourist and fishing harbour. The town also has one of the prettiest and best-preserved historic centres in the region.

Calabria is a recent discovered region for international tourism, and there are direct flights from London Stansead to Lamezia Terme (SUF), just 40 km north of Tropea.
