Calabria is the rugged toe of Italy's boot, a region of dramatic contrasts where the Ionian and Tyrrhenian Seas frame ancient Greek ruins, Norman castles, and one of Italy's most untouched wildernesses. Its clifftop resorts, crystalline waters, fiery cuisine, and layered history from Magna Graecia through Byzantine and Norman rule make it a rewarding destination for adventurous travellers seeking authentic southern Italy without the crowds.
