Neighbourhood
The apartment is located in a calm and quiet area on a hill in the outskirts of Scalea, in the region Calabria in southern Italy. It is 2 minutes drive downhill to the beach, shops and restaurants. Or you can walk in 30 minutes and then be rewarded with some really nice views.
Things to do:
- Enjoy the narrow alleys in Centro Storico (old town) and the view from the Castello on the top of the hill.
- Visit Maratea and see the statue Christo Redentore (second largest Christo statue after the one in Rio de Janiero).
- Stroll the streets in nearby village Diamante and enjoy beautiful and creative murals.
- Try a different beach every day: Scalea, San Nicola Arcella, Lido I Gabbiani, Belvedere Marittimo, Praia a Mare etc.
- Swim in Arco Magno and jump from the cliffs.
- Travel inland to the village Orsomarso. Hike to the waterfall Cascata Ficara, climb the stairs to the Torre del Orologio (the big clock) and see the Madonna in the cave.
- Rent a pedalo boat in Praia a Mare and visit the caves at Dino di Isola. Or go on a boat trip to visit the caves and swim from the boat.
- Be delighted by all ceramics in the old village Belvedere Marittimo.
Nearest airport
The closest airport is Lamezi Terme (2 hours and 11 minutes drive away). We usually fly to Naples instead, since there are more frequent flights there. From Naples it takes 2 1/2 hours to drive to Scalea.
Getting around
We recommend to have a car to get around.
