About Scilla
Scilla packs an unusual amount of drama into a small stretch of the Costa Viola, where the cliff-top Ruffo Castle watches over the fishing quarter of Chianalea and the water shifts between turquoise and deep blue. A half day is enough to sail that coastline on the Scilla: Costa Viola Sailing Schooner Tour, or to walk the myths and alleyways with the Scilla: Myth, Ruffo Castle, and the Village of Chianalea — both easy to fit around a longer Calabria itinerary.

Frequently asked questions
Scilla is compact, so a half day covers its essentials without rushing: the Ruffo Castle rock, the Chianalea lanes that drop straight into the sea, and a stretch of the Costa Viola by boat. You get the coastal scenery and the village atmosphere in a few hours, leaving the rest of the day free for nearby Reggio Calabria or the Aspromonte.
