From Tropea to Cefalù

A road trip through southern Italy

The drive from Tropea to Cefalù is a small adventure full of southern joie de vivre. A short drive along the cliffs onto the highway, a quick cappuccino in Scilla just before the ferry...

...and continue along the coast to the harbor. Bye, Calabria! Then the ferry across the Strait of Messina to Sicily calls.

In Sicily, the motorway itself becomes an experience: a spectacular structure with approximately 57 kilometers of tunnels over a 180-kilometer stretch – the rest feels like a bridge. Suspended between rock and ravine, you glide almost as if flying towards Cefalù. A technical masterpiece amidst dramatic scenery.
