COLOUR OF THE WEEK CONTEST | BLUE / Italian Blue Mind

Calabria is not among the most popular Italian regions, which is quite inexplicable to me, but it's a fact. Here, along the shores of the Tyrrhenian Sea, life flows even slower, people are even more authentic, and the beauty of Italy seems to lie not so much in its cultural heritage but in the simple joys of life.

Right here, nestled in the cliffs, as if to avoid falling into the sea, lies the town of Tropea. A town as small as a mouthful, a perfect destination for true connoisseurs of Italy.

Tropea has its summer devotees who come here for the scattered small patches of sandy beaches nestled among the coastal rocks. They are mainly Italians who want to escape the crowded beaches in other parts of the country, and lovingly named the area the Coast of the Gods.

The beaches of Tropea cannot be called secret, but they are relatively peaceful and with beautiful views.

Mare Piccolo, accessed by stairs from the town center, stands out as one of the most breathtaking spots, boasting expansive views of the mesmerizing blue sea. Here, practicing "blue mind" comes naturally, offering a truly relaxing experience. Enjoy
