Lunga e ampia spiaggia, caratterizzata tuttavia da diverse aree sporche e trascurate. L' acqua, in condizioni climatiche perfette ( mare calmo e vento assente ) risulta piacevole e trasparente. Questo fenomeno tuttavia non capita spesso, quasi mai nel pomeriggio, per cui il mare risulta complessivamente nella norma. Acqua quasi subito mediamente profonda, poco adatta per bimbi piccoli.

Just 18 km along this coast, this area is the stuff of legends and myth. The Pantheon of super heroes are all here: Homer, calypso. Ulysses and even Hannibal built a lookout tower, which now remains a majestic ruin of a castle built in the 13th century, strikingly silhouetted against the azure blue waters of the sea.
Divine premonitions have a hook that draws me in every time. Croton's fortunes were predicted long before its foundations had been laid. Possessing a mild climate is a draw-card for any town but to lie in a fertile plain between a river's mouth is a plus in anyone's book.
Great sons that were born here are owed a massive debt by modern civilisation. Think, Alcmaeon, the genius that founded a school of medicine and what a cracker of a mathematician/Philosopher was Pythagorus, who not only left his mark on Croton's social and political life, but also left an indelible love for his theorem, to me in my high school years. To this day i can work out distances and heights of distant Mountains that dazzle my femme in as far as she can fathom why i just don't Google it!
There is an iconic, single column, the only one remaining, which stands like an erection on the beautiful horizon, the rest of the family of columns were destroyed by earthquakes. take a ride out of the city, to the promontory which is now an archeological park, standing as a testament to its ancient greatness. The local museum unfortunately is limited in space so so much of what's been dug up is preserved in Reggio Calabria, a short ferry ride a away.
Back in town there are lovely baptismal fonts adorned by animal motifs before you front the National Archeological Museum rich in ceramics, objects from the Temple of Hera Lacinia and coins a plenty to interest the keen observer. there are also plenty of Byzantine- inspired souvenirs fashioned from precious metals sold in the village stores. Crotone specialises in filigree work, onyx and coin reproduction observed at the museum.
If you're bored there is a mighty castle of Charles V which actually thwarted Turkish invasions.

A beautiful experience aboard a wonderfully kept vessel. Absolutely spotless. The crew were amazingly friendly professional and helpful from the moment we boarded. Great music,a relaxing atmosphere, fantastic and plentiful food, unlimited drinks and even travel gum for those who may suffer sea sickness. Plenty of room aboard and an amazing sea with fantastic swims makes this boat trip well worth the price of €35 adults and €20 children up to 12. A sin if missed out on. We had a great time.

Beautiful historical place! Very well kept castle full of history with nice views on the sea and the coast. The beach nearby is very small but the castle itself is worth a visit! The village is small but there are few nice shops selling handmade ceramic.

It is a small church next to the Nao Tower and that's it. Nothing special to see here. A church, a closed tower, a pillar, some ancient ruins and a bar... disappointing.

Right out on the cape is the archeological site and museum which are worth a visit. It had just been cleared of the spring flowers so easy to see the site. Lots of birds to see as well
