Learn More about Le Castella

Le Castella is a charming little seaside resort with red sandy beaches and clear waters located in southern Italy. The town itself is very welcoming to tourists, even at the end of the bathing season. There are many stores and a few cafés still open. Most of the tourists are Italians who know the most beautiful places in their country. A visit is a must! The Aragonese Castle, which is located on a small island, is a must-see in the area. It can be reached by a gravel path, which leads over a shallow sea. The castle has been well-preserved and is located right next to Le Castella’s beach. It is the ideal beach for a walk with a stunning view of the castle. The Castella fortress is located in an environment of great natural value, surrounded by the marine reserve of Capo Rizzuto, created in 1991. In one of the rooms of the fortress, you can observe the protected seabed in real time thanks to underwater cameras placed at a depth of about 10 meters. You can take a boat trip aboard La Perla Dello Ionio, a wonderful experience to discover crystal blue sea, fine golden sand and deserted beach, on board a beautifully maintained boat. You will see the castle, while making stops for snorkeling, relaxing on the beach, having a nice lunch, and enjoying the scenery. There is also the possibility to take a half-day sailing excursion to exclusive beaches to discover the protected marine landscape from Capo Rizzuto to Le Castella. Your guide will show you the varied nature and environment, as well as the history of this area. If you are an art lover, a small ceramic store in the city should impress you, it is El Vicollo delle ceramiche, located in the city center. You will come across some remarkable piece of art that you will be able to buy​.
