White sand, crystal clear sea, caves and coves: get your buckets and shovels ready, Calabria has ideal beaches for families with children.
Proof of this are also the many Green Flags awarded by paediatricians to coastal resorts that have proven to have services and opportunities for a perfect holiday with offspring in tow.
In Roccella Ionica you can choose between stretches of free beach to enjoy with your family, but the bathing establishments are a convenient alternative to enjoy days of relaxation and fun for everyone. The white sand is ideal for playing on the foreshore and the seabed is ideal for exploring with a mask.
Capo Vaticano is one of the most popular destinations in Calabria, with its turquoise waters and breathtakingly beautiful views. Here you can enjoy your ideal holiday with children, choosing a different adventure every day. Don't miss the tour in the transparent bottom boat to admire the seabed, free of charge under the age of 5.
In Isola Capo Rizzuto, too, the Green Flag flies, the symbol of a child-friendly beach. One only has to look around to understand why: an expanse of fine sand for playing, crystal-clear sea, equipped and hospitable facilities.
The Aragonese Castle at the water's edge will be the starting point for a pirate's adventure, and then to explore the seabed because Isola Capo Rizzuto is also a protected marine area to be explored. A simple mask and snorkel will be enough to admire fish and starfish, or you can book an excursion in the transparent bottom boat to discover, together with the children, the wonders hidden at the bottom of the sea.
Say Soverato and spacious white beaches and crystal-clear water come to mind. Families with children are welcome here, and one holiday is enough to discover all the most beautiful corners of this stretch of coastline, choosing between the public beach or the many equipped lidos that guarantee comfort and services.
Playing on the shoreline, strolling, diving, exploring the seabed and perhaps spotting a seahorse is an experience that is especially possible in the Bay of the Hippocampus, which takes its name from this marvellous little sea animal.
Because of its characteristics, the beach of Praia a Mare is ideal for families with children, starting with the foreshore and its pebbles, the crystal-clear water, and the gently sloping seabed. The Green Flag guarantees child-friendly facilities and family-friendly beaches.
It will be easy to be won over by the beauty of this stretch of coastline and children will be intrigued by Dino Island, with its bizarre shape. To see it up close, you can circumnavigate it by boat and also explore its spectacular sea caves.
