The morphology of the Calabrian coastline, from the finest sand to the cliffs, the numerous free beaches, and the uncontaminated and wild coastline, offer many opportunities for bathing. A holiday by the sea in Calabria offers many opportunities to choose from, where the combination of crystal-clear sea, seaside villages, unspoilt beaches, and proximity to mountain ranges takes on a unique aspect in the whole of Italy. The beaches of the Grecanica area are on the Ionian Sea and face Sicily, from which they are separated by the Strait of Sicily. the panorama on the horizon, as for the villages, is Mount Etna, They are mostly free beaches, close to the railway, and close to the coastal centre and services, easily accessible and little frequented, ideal for those seeking peace, tranquillity and contact with nature.
