  • Seaside Calabria site with direct access to a private stretch of beach
  • A 10-minute drive from Diamante; 20 minutes from nature reserve walks
  • Beach games, family activities and restaurant on site
What a little gem this Calabria coastal site is… 10 minutes’ drive north of Diamante, Area Camper Ulisse is spread over 15,000 square metres of seaside woodland, with direct access to a private stretch of beach. That in itself is a pretty good start, but the folk here haven’t just relied on the fine location to keep their guests happy: nope, they’ve also ensured there’s plenty to do, and plenty to eat (both most important aspects). For the former, there’s a sand football area, a beach volleyball court and a pétanque court to play beachy games whenever you fancy, and the site staff organise a whole heap of activities including aqua gym classes, kids’ antics and jolly evenings of music, dancing and karaoke. And on the eats front? Kick off the day with top-notch coffee and freshly baked croissants, then settle in for tasty meals at lunch and dinner or graze your way through the day with fries and arancini accompanied by cooling handmade granita drinks. You may well be intending to spend a large chunk of your time here on the beach – and that’s not a bad plan at all, given that it’s right there and set up with comfy loungers, parasols and watersports kit. If you’re up for exploring, however, it won’t take longer than 20 minutes or so in the car to get down into Diamante for a wander, to head up into the foothills of the Valle del Fiume Argentino State Nature Reserve or to seek out local historic sights (or just find another beach, if that’s your idea of sightseeing…)

What customers say

This campsite boasts an excellent beachfront location with many pitches offering sea views or shade under mature trees. Visitors consistently praise the exceptional cleanliness of facilities, including toilets, showers, and dishwashing areas, and highlight the friendly, helpful, and attentive staff. On-site amenities include a well-stocked kiosk, fresh local produce and fish vendors, and a reasonably priced bar. While most guests find the site tranquil, some mention late-night noise from neighbouring properties. Wi-Fi is reportedly only available at reception and can be unreliable. Some reviews note that showers may require payment and may not always provide hot water, with one instance of outdated sanitary facilities. A shuttle service to Diamante is available.

Liked Kleiner aber sehr süßer Campingplatz direkt am Meer.
Haben ganz spontan an dem Tag der Anreise gebucht und konnten nachts um 23:30 Uhr noch anreisen, für die Nacht hat man uns dann ein Stellplatz an der Rezeption gegeben und gleich am nächsten Tag haben wir einen super schönen Stellplatz gleich vorne bekommen nur ein paar Meter vom Strand weg.
Der Betreiber und das gesamte Team war Mega hilfsbereit.
Sanitäranlagen waren sauber und es gab genügend Spülbecken.
Können diesen Campingplatz wirklich weiterempfehlen.

Disliked Schade war nur, dass es abends keine Pizza auf dem Campingplatz gab aber man kann ja ins Ort laufen, da gibt es einige Möglichkeiten.
Für Warmwasser muss man für 2 Minuten 50 Cent bezahlen was auch in Ordnung ist, allerdings haben wir 1€ reingeworfen und leider kam kein warmes Wasser aber bei den Temperaturen war des jetzt auch nicht schlimm. Also am besten wirklich immer 50 Cent Stücke mit zum duschen mitnehmen.

Liked Stopped here for a night and wished we’d stayed longer! Pretty site with most pitches partly shaded by trees, right on the beach with beautiful turquoise water for swimming. Clean but very basic facilities and fantastic value for money.

Disliked No hot water for washing dishes. Shower had no hot water but I might have been unlucky!

Local attractions

Even if you’re reluctant to rise from your sun lounger, it’s worth making the effort to get down to Diamante (10 minutes’ drive) – it’s such a pretty town that it’s been used as the set for several TV shows and films, and it’s also a real hub for street art with more than 70 murals adorning its walls (can you spot them all?). Take in some of the area’s history while you’re out and about with trips to the ruins of Ruderi di Cirella (five minutes’ drive) and the seaside Torre Talao (10 minutes), or get to grips with traditions by finding out about local produce at Museo del Cedro (five minutes), spicing things up at the Chilli Museum (10 minutes) or checking out local clothing at Museo Arti Gusto Buonvicino (25 minutes). Sticking to the seaside, grazie? There are plenty of sandy stretches to seek out within a 20-minute drive, or you may like to take a trip to Cirella island – it’s 600 metres off the shoreline, so you can kayak over or pedal a pedalo.
