In addition to the beauty of its white beaches and the clear waters of the sea, the coastal strip\u00a0close to Tropea with its many caves<\/strong> (the\u00a0Grotta Azzurra is the most renowned) is the ideal destination for snorkeling, scuba diving and a bit of sun.<\/p>\n

3. Roccella Ionica\u00a0and the Pasubio wreck<\/h3>\n

The cliff beneath the Castle of Scilla, Punta Paci and the cliff in the south of Marina Grande beach. These are all simple sites for those who are at the beginning with snorkeling and diving, but be always carefull\u00a0to the currents of the Strait.<\/p>\n
