The gorgeous views from the light house of Capo Vaticano. The stretch of magic coastline along the Tyrrhenian Sea toward the Capital of Reggio Calabria with bright blue sea is breathtaking.
The region of Calabria is isolated although incredibly fascinating with its Byzantine Hill towns, delicious cuisine and granita that is so good it is worthwhile flying over just for a taste of its wide selection of flavours that include prickly pear, almond, pistachio and chocolate to name of few!
