Costa degli Dei & Capo Vaticano Tours
The Coast of the Gods runs roughly fifty kilometres from Pizzo to Nicotera, and its finest stretch is the ten kilometres between Tropea and Capo Vaticano — a granite headland of white cliffs, pine and the Grotticelle coves below. On a clear evening the Aeolian Islands sit on the horizon and Stromboli smokes above them.

Coast of the Gods a Tropea — Domande frequenti
What is the Costa degli Dei?
The Coast of the Gods — the stretch of Calabrian Tyrrhenian coastline between Pizzo and Nicotera, named for its cliffs, clear water and the view across to the Aeolian Islands. Tropea and Capo Vaticano are its two best-known points.
How far is Capo Vaticano from Tropea?
About 10 km south — twenty minutes by road, or the standard destination of a three-hour boat tour. The headland has some of the clearest water in Italy and the beaches at Grotticelle and Praia i Focu below it.
Can you see the Aeolian Islands from Tropea?
On clear days, yes — Stromboli and the northern Aeolians sit on the horizon about 60 km offshore, and Capo Vaticano at sunset is the classic viewpoint. Boat tours time the aperitif stop for it.
