REGGIO CALABRIAReggio Calabria, which is the largest town of Calabria and also the main centre of commerce, stands in a splendid position on the eastern coastof the Straits of Messina, where the straits open into the Ionian Sea. It enjoys an exceptionally mild climate all year round and, for this reason, is apopular seaside resort.

CROTONEThe territory of the province of Crotone is situated between the Sila mountains to the west and the Ionian Sea to the east, and was in antiquity an area of very early Greek settlements; ancient Kroton, the present province capital, was the hometown ofPitagoras, Milo, Alcmeon. In the early 20th century the province had a remarkable industrial development, and though most of the chemical plants of those days were closed, the car industry is still growing. The main resources however are in the tourist sector and agricultural production, especially wine and wheat.

CALABRIA Calabria is located in the centre of the Mediterranean, the region extends southwards from Basilicata and is shaped like a small peninsula surrounded by the Ionian and Tyrrhenian seas. It is separated from Sicily by the Strait of Messina.Calabria, the cradle of ancient civilizations, is the area that gave its name to the entire Italian peninsula. “Italia” was in fact the name that was first given to Calabria in honor of its king Italo. The beauty of Calabria does not end with its history. Alongside this tradition, the unsurpassable beauty of nature stands out not only in the almost 800 kilometers of coastline lined with beautiful beaches and clear blue sea, but also in the wilder mountainous areas and the plains with their citrus orchards and centuries-old olive groves

THINGS TO DO IN CALABRIAThe geographical position, climate and morphology of the territory make Calabria ideal for any type of sporting activity. The particularly extensive coastline, with cliffs falling into the sea alternating with little creeks and endless kilometers of beach, offers the chance to practice swimming, sailing and windsurfing. Underwater diving is particularly exciting and you can explore the fantastic seabed. This region, long and narrow between the two seas, boasts exceptional mountains in the center of the territory with a natural environment that is both fascinating and beautiful. During the winter, although the peaks are not particularly high, the mountains of Calabria have abundant snowfalls that allow tourists to practice skiing in well equipped ski resorts. During the other seasons the mountainous areas of Calabria and the nature parks are the ideal places for other sports such as trekking, walking or horse riding. There are also plenty of opportunities to practice more adventurous sports such as rafting, river trekking and, in complete safety and guided by qualified professionals, you can try potholing in the area’s numerous natural caves. The region also offers two golf courses, set in a position where the green is surrounded by the colors of the sea and by Mediterranean vegetation.

LOCATIONCirò Marina is located about 40 kilometers north of the areas capital town of Crotone in the province of the same name. Relatively speaking this is a tiny province comprising of around 27 small towns with about a third of the region’s population living in the capital town. The ancient city of Crotone (Greek Kroton) was renamed Crotone in the late 1920’s and has been an important centre of maritime commerce since the 8th century. It was also once known as the city of physicians even housing a school of Pythagoras in the 6th century furthermore when Hannibal threatened Rome in the 3rd century he spent 3 years in the city before moving on. The region of Calabria is, despite its extensive coastline, one of the most heavily wooded areas in Italy. Sila National Park is an absolute treasure situated between the East and West coastlines (Ionian and Mediterranean respectively) and we implore visitors arriving at Lemezia Terme to take the time and trouble to navigate the hills and hairpin bends of the roads that cuts through the mountains from west to east coast; it’s a lovely journey and well worth the extra hour or so of the more direct highway route. Beautiful, almost alpine villages can be found along the way plus some staggering views of the surrounding hills and lakes and, if you are lucky enough to travel during the winter months, the mountain tops will be snow capped and suitable for winter sports yet the coast can still be bathed in warm winter sunlight.

PROJECTThe coastline is stretch after stretch of sandy semi-deserted beaches fronting the crystal clear waters of the Ionian Sea. Until, that is, the Italian summer season gets into full swing during the principle months of July and August and then of course the whole region is alive with activity and atmosphere and the demand for accommodation reaches fever pitch! The small and un-spoilt town of Cirò Marina is located on a most picturesque coastline and during the summer months, due to the excellent quality of its beaches, it is one of the most popular touristic destinations along the Ionian coast. Famous for its Cirò wine a DOC (Denomination of Controlled Origin) which can be accompanied by some great food - the area has many excellent restaurants offering a Smörgåsbrod of choice, from excellent local specialties, superb seafood or fine European cuisine. The nearest airport, Lemezia Terme is 65 miles away and receives low cost flights from London Stansted and a choice of low cost routes into other Italian cities with easy and affordable internal transfers to Lamezia. Calabria is currently very affordable which somewhat belies its position as a wonderful tourist destination, one that will undoubtedly increase in popularity in the years ahead. Increased tourism will almost certainly result in increased demand and increased house prices. We are, therefore, confident in recommending Residence Volvito to you as both a great lifestyle choice and a sound investment proposition for the years ahead.
