Although it is known as an important industrial and commercial center, the city of Vibo is also an essential tourist destination in the region of Calabria. Unspoiled countryside, modestly-designed houses, shops and dream beaches are among the most beautiful tourist attractions in Vibo.
Why drop anchor in Vibo Valentia?
Formerly called Hipponion, the city of Vibo Valentia adopted its current name after almost 2 centuries AD. You will immediately notice, through its monuments, that the city is still bathed in a kind of nostalgia, despite its openness to modernity. Its cathedral, which was built around the 17th century and dedicated to Saint Leoluca, bears witness to its pious past, for example. The 16th-century palace, located next to this majestic church, is also one of Vibo Valentia's must-sees.
To appreciate the full splendor of this region of Italy by sailboat, you can also continue on to discover the entire province of Vibo. For seasoned hikers, this will be an incredible and long adventure through vineyards clinging proudly to the hillsides. All along the way, the fields of lemon and orange trees and the fragrant wheat fields offer you a pleasant setting to admire or take photos of as a souvenir. Don't forget to stop for a drink and a bite to eat on the edge of the olive groves before heading back to the town of Vibo Valentia, where other marvels await you, but this time by the sea.
