Highlight • Beach

Absolutely beautiful piece of sea, even if close to the urbanized area. But moving away from the town center, the beach is wide and deserted

Art Installations on the Roccella Jonica Seafront

Highlight • Monument

The Roccella seafront, almost 4 km long, is one of the most beautiful seafronts on the Ionian coast on the Locride side. Starting from the Piazzetta delle Colonne towards the port we come across various art installations. In the background at the top you can admire the cliff with the Pizzofalcone tower and the Carafa Castle.
Traveling along the seafront of Roccella, whether on foot or by bicycle, is a real pleasure.

Siderno Superiore and View of the Ionian Coast

Highlight • Settlement

The hamlet of Siderno Superiore offers breathtaking views of the Ionian coast. The Parish of San Nicola di Bari is located within the town, but is worth a detour to visit.
