A meeting with Calabria’s sea

Roccella Ionica is a seaside town in Reggio Calabria province.

Its waterfront belongs to the Riviera dei Gelsomini.

Carafa Castle on the hill provides a visual connection between the old town and the shore.

For a varied day, combine beach time with a walk around town.

The harbour is a separate facility and should not be used as a pin for the entire beach.

Check which access point serves the shore section you want to visit.

Confirm facilities with the individual operator, particularly outside the main season.

Events may affect traffic and the availability of public spaces on particular dates.

Environmental awards verified for a specific year remain different from daily bathing information.
