Located on the Tyrrhenian Sea side of Italy’s glorious boot, Lamezia, Italy is a dreamy hot-spot for a romantic Italian escape. With its three little cities all rolled into one, Lamezia exudes old-world charm and elegance. Gorgeous white sandy beaches and picturesquehills surround the three towns, Nicastro, Sambiase and Sant'Eufemia. The most noted of the three, Nicastro, boasts a colourful main street for strolling, a graceful cathedral to explore, a historical archaeological museum and the remains of the famous Federico Barbarossa Castle.

Explorer types will love a tour of the Bastion of the Knights of Malta watchtower which has been well-preserved since the year 1550.  The enchanting sea side city of Lamezia and the entire region of Calabria offers visitors with a laid-back countryside feel, as well as a tranquil unsurpassed atmosphere to allow all worries to wash away.  Visitors can enjoy late night Italian cuisine at any of the cozy water-front restaurants and midnight strolls. Don’t forget to do as the Italian’s do and order up your serving of creamy gelato or ice cream for your after dinner walk. 

Back in the day the region was once known as the ‘land of wine’ and while some vineyards date back to ancient Greek settlers, they are still a very well kept secret outside of Italy. Serve wine with some famous Italian sausages and cold cuts like sopressata and you have a food-lovers paradise right on the Mediterranean. 

Enjoy the ancient Roman tradition of soaking in sulphuric spring baths at the Thermal Springs of Caronte, take in spectacular views of the Swabian Castle of Norman times and laze upon the unspoilt beaches that encompass the land. Lamezia is the perfect example of how Italy has been since the dawn of age; unspoilt and untouched.
