Tyrrhenian coast of Calabria

The Tyrrhenian coast of Calabria stretches from the River Noce at Tortora Marina in the north-west to the Strait of Messina in the south-east. This stretch of coastline is about 140 miles long. The coastline is smooth. There are practically no bays giving good shelter for yachts. There are a few marinas and fishports where yachts can be moored.

Along the coast there are highways and railroads that allow you to approach to the center of Italy. There are no big cities on the coast, but there are many small towns and villages.

The history of the region goes back centuries, until the 8th century BC, when Calabria was colonized by the Greeks.
