Holidays in Parghelia

Holidays in Parghelia are about dozing on talcum-soft sands. Basking in warm seas and heart-lifting scenery. And slowing your stride to match Calabria's restful pace.

A friendly town north of Tropea, Parghelia may be little known as a holiday resort, but it still boasts a beach that measures up to its livelier neighbour's. Here, tucked between headlands, you'll find idyllic white sands brushed by the clear Tyrrhenian Sea. Away from the sands, the town has plenty of diversions to fill the gaps between your beach and bronzing sessions. Think tempting trattorias serving seafood freshly plucked from the local waters. Enticing souvenir shops. And a pretty parish church, housing a stunning altar. Or for something buzzier, there's always scenic Tropea, a clifftop town packed with colourful shops, eateries and fascinating monuments.
