Our base in Reggio Calabria is in the Strait of Messina. It is certainly not the most beautiful place but it has the advantage of being the best protected of the strait's ports.
Historically, pirates, the Second World War and the 1980 earthquake have largely contributed to the destruction of this small town.
Its port is nevertheless well equipped and well situated for setting off to discover Sicily by sailboat, which is 5 miles away. You can also cross the strait and head for the Aeolian Islands by catamaran, 40 miles from the base.
Reggio Calabria certainly stands out for its ancient and authentic character. Located in the south of Italy, this important seaside resort, located on the slopes of Aspromonte, was occupied by the Greeks from the 8th century BC before becoming the object of desire for many invaders.
The architecture of the city also bears traces of the conquerors who came to invade the city of Reggio Calabria. By choosing a yacht charter in Reggio Calabria, you can stroll through the city's lively streets and admire these beautiful architectural works such as the Francesco Cilea Theatre, the baroque Villa Genovese Zerbi, the Cathedral of Maria Santissima Assunta in Cielo, and the charming Church of the Ottimati.
But Francesco Cilea is also a vast wooded area that will obviously enchant nature lovers. The forests of chestnut, silver fir and oak add a touch of beauty to this seaside resort overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. While enjoying a hike in the Aspomonte National Park, you will plunge into a lush green world, revealing Mount Etna in the distance, standing out alone in the heart of Sicily.
