Reggio Calabria, Italy-- The Top Vacation Destination in Italy.

Reggio Calabria, Italy is definitely one of the most unbelievable panoramic destinations in Italy. Its also incredibly untraveled by the vacation masses and receives a low turnout on popularity as opposed to other Italian hot spots such as Capri, Elba or any other coastal resort towns. Now, from experience, I can tell you there is a huge difference between northern and southern Italy. Northern, the landscape and overall social setting is more organized and probably resembles a more western (American) feel. As you travel to Southern Italy, you are surrounded by a more authentic, simplistic way of life. Now, this doesn't mean you have no modern day amenities but its definitely not Northern Italy.

I strongly suggest if you're looking for a less traveled and uncharted vacation this summer then Reggio Calabria is for you. In Calabria, you're surrounded by agriculture, open seas, emerald waters, fresh food, sea and mountain air. Its so indescribable. The area has endured many historical events and the people of Calabria are unique in the sense of pride and authenticity of their land. History and actual archeology have a great place in Calabria as well. Current excavations are underway, truly amazing. Calabria is also located in an area where taking day trips to Sicily are possible and visiting other resort areas on the water in Sicily are a ferry boat ride away. There are also volcanic islands like Stromboli and Lipari, which are also accessible by ferry. To vacation in Calabria is to vacation in paradise, villas are readily available in all areas of Calabria including near the beaches. Calabria is slowly evolving into a major destination for American and European jetsetters. Get a head of the game and plan your trip now! Visit these sites for further info on stays, villas, and overall Calabria.
