South Italy
◈ Molise, Campania, Puglia, Basilicata, Calabria, Sicily ◈
Southern Italy has some absolutely magnificent offerings including beautiful stretches of dramatic coastline, picture perfect beaches, charming coastal islands and a plethora of historic cities and towns. Possibly the best known region is the gorgeous Amalfi Coast ; this area on the Mediterranean coast is regarded as one of the most beautiful in Europe. Bustling Naples, Royal Palace of Caserta ( the largest royal residence in the world), the dramatic ruins of the lost city of Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius, the romantic Capri island, laidback Puglia and stuning beaches of Calabria , as well as up-and-coming agriturism help making Italy's less visited regions great places to explore. Just off the 'toe' of Italy's 'boot' sits Sicily , the largest of the Mediterranean islands and home to mighty Mount Etna , Europe's highest active volcano. Romans, Greeks, Arabs and others have all left their mark on this gorgeous island. With so much to offer, a trip to Southern Italy can be a true adventure. Discover more!
