View of Amantea
The seaside resort of Amantea is situated on the Tyrrhenian coast of Calabria in Southern Italy and would be an excellent spot to visit. Amantea lies off the beaten tourist trail of Calabria and the historic area of the town lies on a hill overlooking the more modern part and offers plenty of nice things to see and do.

Book into a fabulous villa in Calabria and experience the many attractions in this scenic region.
Modern district of Amantea
Explore the magnificent old castle here that was originally built by the Byzantines and reinforced by the Arabs. Then meander along quaint cobbled streets towards Palazzo delle Clarisse which is a 17th century architectural gem of Amantea. In the afternoon why not stop off to gaze upon the 14th century old tower at Campora San Giovanni and explore the fascinating archaeological area here too.

The old town of Amantea is by far the most attractive section of this tourist resort. Enjoy spending an afternoon strolling along the old pathways here leading to ancient ruins and spots with excellent views of the surrounding countryside and sea.
Amantea coastline
Go sunbathing or swimming at Amantea’s beach or in the evening at the sun sets, walk along the picturesque promenade located behind the beach.

Sit down to a delicious seafood meal with wine in one of several eateries here with spectacular views of the sea.

Nearby to Amantea is one of the ‘Borghi piu belli d’Italia’ which is a list of the most beautiful villages in Italy called Fiumefreddo Bruzio. This pretty little hilltop village is most certainly worth a walk around during your trip to Amantea.

There are several old churches here, ancient buildings and plenty of fun water sports to experience during your visit to Amantea so why not include a trip to this area during your next vacation to the beautiful region of Calabria!
