Located at an altitude of 124 meters, the Capo Vaticano promontory is located on the Tyrrhenian coast of Calabria, in the municipality of Ricadi, located between the gulf of Sant 'Eufemia and Gioia Tauro, on the stretch of coast called Costa degli dei.

At about 100 meters above sea level, practically on the top, there is the lighthouse, built in 1885 and a reference point for mariners.


Through a narrow road it is possible to reach it easily, to admire the suggestive panoramic views offered by that location, including Stromboli Volcano and Aeolian Islands.

The coast is full of inlets and enchanting bays, including that of Grotticelle, formed by three beaches that follow one after the other.
