  • Family-friendly site a 15-minute walk from Le Castella
  • Direct access to a sandy beach; scuba diving and sailing trips in town
  • Bar serving drinks and pizzas to eat on the terrace or take away
If you’re booking a site with an impressively sea-themed name like Camping Costa Splendente, you’d no doubt be expecting to be within easy reach of some sort of beach. And frankly you’ll have to be placed on the ‘impossible to please’ pile if you’re not in approval of what you find here… Stroll to the far end of this site just outside Calabria's Le Castella, swing open the gate and it’s but a handful of steps to get to the beach, a secluded sandy stretch with safe swimming in the clear waters of the Mediterranean. If you’re tempted to get further out to sea, it’ll take you 15 minutes or so to stroll into town for scuba diving, sailing and snorkelling boat trips. Should you tire of beach-based lounging, head back to the site for a burst of activity – a game of volleyball, table tennis or pétanque, perhaps – or to grab a drink at the bar while the bambini bolt over to the playground. Or you could always just seek out a spot for a siesta; with eucalyptus and pine trees scattered around the three-hectare site there should be plenty of shaded corners to pick from. A mini market is on site for essential supplies, and the bar serves up snacks and pizzas to eat on the terrace or take away (pizza on the beach, anyone?)

Liked: Piazzola spaziosa, bagni puliti, spiaggia (piccola ma molto carina e vicinissima al campeggio). Il paese era raggiungibile a piedi con una passeggiata di neanche 10 minuti, quindi comodissimo per avere ogni servizio a disposizione senza prendere la macchina.

Local attractions

Want to see more of that gorgeous blue sea? Boat trips leave from the harbour in Le Castella for days cruising along the coastline with snorkelling stops along the way to see what lurks under the surface. For a deeper view, there are a couple of scuba diving centres in town, along with a sailing centre for folk who’d rather stay above water. Many folks across the ages have left their mark on this stretch of coastline, so it’s been left with plenty of historical bits and bobs to see. Wander in to Le Castella in 15 minutes or so to take a look around its handsome seafront Aragonese fort or take the half-hour drive to the ancient ruins at Capo Colonna before continuing into Crotone to see its seafront towers and archaeology museum. Straying from the coast briefly, hikers, mountain bikers, horse riders and birdwatchers may like to head inland to the mountains of the Sila National Park, just over an hour’s drive away.
