Nestled at the foot of the Aspromonte mountain range, Reggio Calabria is a busy and attractive port

Filled with pristine beaches, wondrous landscapes and a winning charm, the region of Calabria in southern Italy easily earns its nickname as the Caribbean classic car rental colorado of Europe. classic car rental colorado Some say it's even better than the real Caribbean though, after all it's much closer to home, you can gorge on scrumptious Italian cuisine and the charming medieval villages will quickly classic car rental colorado send you head over heels. The place is surrounded by the oh-so-inviting Ionian Sea on one side and the Tyrrhenian classic car rental colorado Sea on the other and there is plenty to see and explore, yet somehow Calabria isn't much of a mainstream tourist spot, at least not in the same way as say, Tuscany.

Tropea is probably classic car rental colorado the best known jewel in Calabria's crown and it literally sparkles, or rather the sea does.

Built right on the cliff edge with the sprawling sands below, it could easily earn the title as Italy's prettiest town.
Another stunner, although not quite as popular as Tropea, the small town of Amantea is found around 90km up the coast. It boasts a very picturesque centre and also a long history with many Bronze and Iron Age artefacts having been uncovered at the mouth of the River Savuto classic car rental colorado over the years. The historical portion of the city is spread across the hill overlooking the new portion of the city, where the main boulevard is lined with a myriad of shops, restaurants and piazzas and of course very friendly locals.

Pizzo Calabro or Pizzo for short enjoys a fantastic panoramic classic car rental colorado position and a lovely old town area.

Be sure to wander the old cobbled streets with a tasty ice cream in hand.
Nestled at the foot of the Aspromonte classic car rental colorado mountain range, Reggio Calabria is a busy and attractive port town and is not to be confused with Reggio Emilia which is found in Northern Italy.
