July 17, 2026, View of Costa Viola

The view of Scilla from the Costa Viola offers one of the most evocative panoramas in Italy. The rocky promontory dominates the coast, with the Ruffo Castle separating Marina Grande beach from the picturesque fishing village of Chianalea. The sea here takes on the characteristic purplish hues that give the coastline its name. The most famous viewpoint to admire this view is the belvedere known as U' Ffacciaturi, located in the upper district of San Giorgio. Reachable by climbing the characteristic stairways or via a lift (for a fee of €1.00), the belvedere offers a sheer view of the "Spiaggia delle Sirene" (Mermaids' Beach), Punta Pacì, and the entire Strait of Messina.

The Lungomare Italo Falcomatà, also known as Via Marina, is the famous coastal promenade of Reggio Calabria, 1.64 km long, which connects Piazza Indipendenza to Piazza Garibaldi. Historically defined by Gabriele D'Annunzio as "the most beautiful kilometer in Italy" for its extraordinary geographical position, it offers a unique panoramic view of the Strait of Messina, Sicily, and Mount Etna. On particular summer days, from here you can witness the Fata Morgana mirage, an optical phenomenon that makes the Sicilian coast appear incredibly close and reflected on the sea.

The statues by Rabarama in Reggio Calabria are three imposing humanoid sculptures in bronze and painted aluminum, located in the gardens of the Lungomare Italo Falcomatà, near Villa Genoese Zerbi. The works were created by the Roman artist Paola Epifani (aka Rabarama) and purchased by the Municipality in 2007 following the great success of her solo exhibition "Identità". Each sculpture represents a monumental human figure, without a direct gaze, whose skin is entirely covered in colorful geometric and symbolic patterns that reflect the complex inner world of man.

The Ritiro Viaduct is a strategic work located on the A20 Messina-Palermo motorway (in the municipality of Messina, between the Giostra and Boccetta junctions). After an impressive intervention for static and seismic adaptation and total reconstruction of the decks, the viaduct has been reopened and completed, resolving a long period of disruption for city and motorway traffic.

Viale Calabria, located in Reggio Calabria, is an important road artery. Although not directly on the sea, it intersects the famous Lungomare Italo Falcomatà. This coastal stretch is renowned for its breathtaking view of the Strait of Messina and the Sicilian coast, and is defined as the most beautiful kilometer in Italy.
