Calabria is a land inhabited since prehistoric times. Thanks to its geographical position at the heart of the Mediterranean, it has welcomed peoples from all over the world.
These peoples have left their mark, still clearly visible today in the local customs and culture.

You might come to Calabria for the sea: with its 800 kilometers of coastline, it can offer you the corner of paradise you’re looking for.
Or you might come for the mountains, majestic and powerful.
Three national parks and one regional park are guardians of Mediterranean biodiversity.

In Calabria, you can fly over the waves with a sail or slide through the waters of mountain streams, into gorges hidden in the rock… in the same day!

There are villages that look out over two seas, and others that have two castles.
In some places, people still speak ancient Greek; in others, Albanian.
The remains of Roman villas alternate with those of Greek temples, while Byzantine churches still welcome the faithful today.

But all of this is not always easy to find, because Calabria is a region out of the ordinary.
Like a treasure chest, it hides its riches so the most beautiful places, the most meaningful experiences, must be sought out.
You need to know, to learn, to open your mind, and to be immensely curious — without prejudice.

A journey to Calabria is more than just a landscape, more than just a visit.
It is a slow tasting, not only of delicious food, but of a world that, to be truly appreciated, must first be observed, then breathed in, and finally approached with respect.
Only then does the full richness of this land reveal itself to the traveler.
