If you think that due to the small size of the town, you won't need a map of Tropea, you are deeply mistaken. There are so many attractions here that you won't be able to navigate without an additional helper.
Tropea is located on an incredibly beautiful terrain on the southern part of the province of Catanzaro, between two plains named Serra San Bruno and Gioia Tauro.
Tourists who find themselves in the resort for the first time should definitely bring a map of Tropea with hotels to choose the most convenient accommodation option on the Tyrrhenian coast.
The town is so small that tourists don't have a wide choice of which part of the city to stay in. You can either stay directly on the coast or in the old town area.
Experienced travelers who have been here multiple times mention Corso Vittorio Emanuele, the central street, as one of the best areas to stay. It has numerous shops, souvenir stores, and cafes.
Despite the incredible beauty and seemingly peaceful places, there are dangerous areas in Tropea. From time to time, there are reports in newspapers about cases of bloody feuds among local mafiosi.
