Capo Vaticano, Calabria

Picturesque impressions at the Capo Vaticano

At the Stretto di Messina, the street of Messina you find the Capo Vaticano whose name, however, has nothing to bearing with Vatican or the church. The name rather results from old times, where today the lighthouse is to be found and an oracle often visited by seafarers was to be found.

By the original name, Capo the Vaticinii, the name means “cape of the prophecies”. If you rent a room at the hotel or a comfortable holiday apartment in the region Capo Vaticano you can experience some dreamlike perspective. The street of Messina is a marvellous spot – a sundown over the strait between Italy and Sicily is an unforgotten and an often experienced photograph.

You can reach the Aeolian Islands Stromboli, Vulcano, Salina, Alicudi and Filicudi, as well as Lipari and Pan area by boat; but also the view from Cap Vaticano is breathtaking. Excursions to the city Messina where also the most important harbour of the region after Sicily or in the whole region Calabria is found, make the holiday in the Italian south diverse and interesting.

Having a glass of wine or a cappuccino or enjoying the scenic impressions as well as tasting the treats of the regional cuisine at the hotel or the holiday apartment in the Capo Vaticano makes the holiday at Capo Vaticano unforgettable.
