Michelino beach, declared one of the most beautiful places in Italy by the New York Times. A jewel of the Calabrian coast. Are you a keen beach seeker? Do you like discovering pleasant places? Original, off the beaten track? Write down this name: Michelino, and start dreaming.
What the New York Times says about the Calabrian beach
Yes, because it took the signature of the New York Times (and we thank them), Susan Van Allen, to re-reveal a wonder. In fact, it is the American newspaper that brings to the fore what we have always had under our eyes. Michelino beach is one of the hundred most beautiful places in Italy. In short, a true Paradise in our home. The neighbor Tropea it has already had its awards. The Calabrian coast is in the hearts of many. The beaches are a destination for enthusiasts. The enhancement work is in progress and is bearing well-deserved results.
How to reach Michelino beach
It is located in Parghelia. The inviolable beauty of Michelino beach is guarded by a steep descent. A place to see "at least once in a lifetime". The show it will offer you is an expanse of white and fine sand. It can be reached from a district bearing the same name: Michelino. Not far from the town. As you proceed and embrace the sea with your view, try to count the number of steps that separate you from Michelino beach. That's why arriving will be an achievement. The steps are 240.
The descent proceeds between curves, which offer unusual views. The Aeolian Islands, Stromboli and the smoking plume. You will find two clear inlets, divided by a stone wall. Ready to be explored.
Parghelia, the municipality where the beach is located
If you think about it, it is precisely this distance, this effort, even physical (but pleasant) that keeps Michelino's beach safe from pollution and overcrowding. An effort that pays off, for the beauty of the views and the quiet. There are no bars, if you bring something to drink remember not to abandon any type of waste. You are visiting a rare pearl of the Tyrrhenian coast. To be given to real sealovers. A stretch of coast called Costa Bella, or Costa degli Dèi, precisely because of the suggestive sunsets. Parghelia, which borders Tropea, is a town waiting to be discovered, thanks to the variety of places, greenery and beaches it offers.
