Bagnara Calabra

This small Tyrrhenian coast town in Calabria's southernmost stretch, Bagnara Calabra sits directly on the water with vineyards in the surrounding hills and views toward the mountains. Its compact centre has cafés and restaurants, and the setting — sea on one side, elevated terrain on the other — makes it a photogenic stop on the southern Italian coastline, a short drive northeast of Reggio Calabria.
