One of the largest towns in Calabria, Lamezia Terme has all you expect of Italy and more; fabulous food, rich history, sunshine, pristine beaches and sweeping views of the sparkling Tyrrhenian Sea at every turn.
It’s no wonder that so many people are choosing to invest in property in Calabria, especially as unlike the rest of Italy you won’t be jostling hundreds of tourists for your panoramic pictures.
As the region is still relatively undiscovered, property in Calabria is also often more affordable than the rest of Italy. Lamezia Terme is an ideal location to buy because it is blessed with direct flights from the UK, excellent transport links with Rome and Naples.

The town is surrounded by beautiful sun bleached beaches that sit pretty on the pristine Tyrrhenian Sea. You’ll enjoy swimming in secluded sandy bays, relaxing, soaking up the daytime rays and the evening’s incredible sunsets.
The coastal road that runs from Lamezia down to Capo Vaticano is known as God’s Coast and it’s easy to see why; the road twists and turns as you wind your way along dramatic cliffs that plunge straight down to the vivid blue sea below.
Some of the best property in Calabria can be found along this beautiful stretch of coastline, from Lamezia itself through to Pizzo, Tropea and Capo Vaticano.
Nicastro is the oldest part of Lamezia Terme, while away the days here exploring the wonderful cathedral, the impressive remains of the Barbarossa Castle and the Archaeological Museum, ending in Italian tradition with a cool drink in a pavement café or long delicious meal in one of Nicastro’s excellent restaurants.

One of the largest commercial centres in Calabria, Lamezia will provide all you need by way of shops; from high fashion boutiques like Prada and Armani in central Lamezia to excellent furniture outlets in the large shopping complex just out of town, indispensable if you own property in Calabria.
