Palombaro Cave

Sitting high on a chunk of rock jutting out into the sea, this iconic medieval-style monastery is an icon of the town of Tropea.

Learn about the local history of Tropea when you spend time at View of the Corso.

See religious themed sculptures, frescoes and reliquary busts as well as exhibits covering ancient burial practices in this ecclesiastical museum.

Look for a revered Byzantine icon of the town’s patron saint, Madonna of Romania, as well as two unexploded World War II bombs in this centuries-old cathedral.

Dock your boat at Tropea’s main harbor, which has space for about 450 boats of varying sizes as well as lots of useful amenities.

Go down the 210 stairs to this pristine sandy cove and enjoy the peace and isolation of its three sections.
