The town of Bova Marina, in the province of Reggio Calabria, awaits you along the coast of the Lower Ionian Sea with its child-friendly Green Flag beach.

Among the panoramic views not to be missed is the path among the rocks leading to the chapel with the Statue of the Madonna del Mare.

Archaeology and Judaism enthusiasts in Calabria can visit the remains of the Bova Marina Synagogue, one of the oldest in the Mediterranean.

Discovered in the 1980s, the synagogue is dated between the 4th and 5th centuries and features a beautiful floor mosaic depicting a menorah (the traditional 7-armed Jewish candelabrum) flanked by other symbols. A visit to the synagogue, within the ArcheoDeri Archaeological Park, also includes the MArRc, the museum that exhibits additional artefacts and works of art.
