Costa degli Dei — Tropea

Calabria

Tropea sits on a sandstone cliff above turquoise water that is consistently ranked Italy's clearest. The old town of churches and baroque palaces perches at the cliff's edge; steps lead down to Santa Maria dell'Isola on its rock. The coastal path links Tropea to Parghelia through red-earth cliff and turquoise cove scenery.
