Sacilo & DRONATIC FLIGHTS
in flight at sunset, with the drone (DJI MAVIC PRO) on the stretch called the COSTA VIOLA, on the fantastic SCILLA and on the characteristic and unique VILLAGE of CHIANALEA called the little Venice, in the extreme point of CALABRIA just in front of SICILY.
At the top we can see the RUFFO CASTLE with the lighthouse inside.
SCILLA
Place of tourist destination not to be missed, with a crystal clear beach to have nothing to envy to more popular summer destinations.
According to Greek mythology, Scilla was a sea nymph who was transformed by Circe into a monster out of jealousy while bathing in a cove near Zancle (today's Messina); in place of the legs he had six dog heads that were bent, and long snake tails. The story is told in the Odyssey and in the Metamorphoses of Ovid.
CHIANALEA
Chianalea or Piana delle Galee, name of an ancient boat or synonymous archaic swordfish. Coastal area located on the northern slope of the cliff that houses the Castle that divides it from Marina Grande. Chianalea offers only a few meters of beach being almost all its coastline consists of rocks and rocks that make it dangerous and difficult to enter the water. All of Chianalea is crossed by a single road that connects it on one side with the port and on the other with the SS18. Pleasant element of the area is the large number of houses built almost all close to the sea, which have earned it the nickname of "Little Venice of the South". Finally, halfway between Marina Grande and Chianalea is the already mentioned port that hosts fishing boats and, during the summer, small and medium pleasure craft. Chianalea is included in the list of the most beautiful villages in Italy.
MARINA GRANDE
This is the area of ​​the beach, bounded, to the south and north, by two imposing rock ridges. Another attraction of Marina Grande is the sixteenth-century church of the Holy Spirit, where is the painting of Francesco Celebrano The descent of the Holy Spirit (1799)
CASTELLO RUFFO di SCILLA
The Ruffo di Scilla castle, sometimes also known as the Ruffo di Calabria castle, is an ancient fortification located on the scillèo promontory, stretched out over the Strait of Messina. The castle is the genius loci of the town of Scilla, about 20 km north of Reggio Calabria, and certainly one of the most characteristic and typical elements of the landscape of the Strait and the district of Reggio. The castle also houses one of the Navy lighthouses, the Scilla lighthouse.
