In the Bel Paese the choice for the water lovers is so wide that it is confusing: Tyrrhenian? Adriatic? Ionian? Ligurian? All of them have their points of strength and their marvels...the cost wet by the Adriatic Sea perhaps is the most equipped for tourism, so if you prefer more natural ambient you could try the Ionic Sea, that wets a side of Apulia, of Calabria and of Sicily; the hot sun and the blue skies attract many people who want to escape from the city, looking for a deserved pause.

The culture of Calabria is very ancient, enough to include among its dialects a language that comes directly from the Ancient Greek, called Greek of Calabria: it is still talked in some areas of the southern part of the region, in the province of Reggio Calabria, but until the XV century it was talked in the whole region. The precise origin of the Greek of Calabria is still subject of discussion: some say that it comes from the Byzantine Greek, others from the Magna Graecia, and its evolution has been different and separated from the Hellenic Greek’s one; anyway, the Greek of Calabria is an archaic language, that uses words that in the neo-Greek do not exist.
