Monasterace

Monasterace is located in the Ionian part of the province of Reggio Calabria, in Locride, along the Costa dei Gelsomini. Best known for the archaeological area of the ancient city of Kaulonia, Magna Graecia, founded by Crotone in the 6th century BC. But Monasterace also boasts a characteristic fortified village of mediaeval origin, with walls, gates and the remains of a castle.

Monasterace Marina is a popular summer tourist destination, thanks to its beautiful beaches and the already mentioned archaeological park
