[...] As I’ve said before, Pietragrande is arguably one of the most stunning beaches in Calabria and lucky for me, it is only a 15 minute drive from Catanzaro.

I think the beaches, the food and the Roman ruins would all do it for me! I’m checking prices right now! Hopefully we’ll see you in a few months!

Wonderful. Come on over!

Hi Cherrye! Hope your summer is going well. Caminia almost made it on my beach list but I had to refrain from listing more than 1 Calabrian beach… didn’t want to seem biased. I’m with you on the Guglielmo! my favorite! I also love the fact that it’s not too touristy in Calabria… lets keep it a secret exept for il Cedro…. EVERYONE should stay there!

Good deal, Louise!! I cant wait!

I thought you would like this, J. How is Paris?

I hear you, Anne! Thanks.

Harley – Thank you so much, that is so nice to say. I hope you enjoyed your melanzane. I had a great dish when I was in Palermo a few months ago!

Cherrye – I love your site and this post is fantastic. A year ago today I was in Naples/Capri on my way from a cruise of Firenze, Roma, Assisi and on to Palermo. I would love to visit this area sometime and I really appreciate all your great posts. I’ll be thinking of this great post when I go to my favorite Sicilian restaurant tonight here in Milwaukee. I can taste the melanzane already.

I stayed at the Hotel Guglielmo. I thought it appropriate because my grandfather left there and came to Cleveland because he could not make enough money there to support his family. But it makes me happy to know that is where my antecedents are from.

I’ve had the pleasure of visiting Catanzaro a couple times on my trips to Italy and have to say my husband and I loved the city. we had a fabulous dinner, had great gelato and great coffee. We’ve also had the pleasure of going to Pietre Grande and Catanzaro Lido and we LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Pietre Grande!!!! WE had an AMAZING lunch at the restaurant perched up on the beach. The water is unexplainable!!!
