My grand grand father was a sailor and has sailed over the Cap Horn. That's why I has a closer relation to those sailors reached this point after their ship crashed. You can here and feel the see while standing inside the church.

Be prepared for a good walk from the centre of Pizzo to the Grotto but it is well worth the effort. Entry costs about €3.

Unusual and very unique - a lovely story of a local man who took responsibility for the cave and did so many carvings. Don’t think many people know the story! Before visiting look it up! One tip, don’t pay for parking at the top, drive down the side where you can find a car park which is free.

Great job. Try not to miss it

Amazing place that worths a visit, the entrance is 3 euro. The history behind is interesting and the beach on front is quiet.

Beautiful & very interesting place to visit. Parking at the top for €5 & a stunning view on the way down (lots of steps). I think the entrance fee of €5 per adult (€3 per child) is too much. Don't forget to take your swimming things & picnic with as there is a beautiful bay at the bottom to enjoy!

This place is stunning i absolutely loved my visit here. The little church on the beach is well worth a visit and also the real history into this church is worth looking up. It is only €3.00 entry charge for as long as you want. It is interesting too see all the hand made stone statues. The Beach is absolutely stunning and clean. It's not usually to busy, but a lot of tourist buses stop to visit here. There are little bars/cafe's here too so it's the perfect place to pull over. Just 10 minutes drive along the road from here there is Pizzo another place worth a visit.

This place, the photos look good, but when you arrive at the place, there is no great impression. It's not worth going to it. There is a beautiful beach nearby, so it gave us more impressions. (don't be too lazy to walk over the rocks to the coves and a completely private view. a few tips for those who don't like to overpay: * upon arrival, there is a parking lot - paid (5eur. hour, 10eur day). You can drive by and park your car nearby, on the side of the road for free. * sculptures. Paid, 5 euros per person. However, you can enter, look around and decide if you really want to enter. Because we went in, but we recommend that you come to look around, get an impression and not go, don't pay. * after visiting this place, you will see nearby directions to try the famous tartufo ice cream in the area. Keep in mind that this is not a cafe, this is a workshop. After following the directions, you will see the ice cream machines and the door of the workshop, you have to call them. (price of ice cream, we took 2 portions for 5 euros).

Good and historical church..old type and near to the sea..ryou have to pay parking upstair and then climb down 100s stairs ..you can also enjoy beach later on..te some bar near to the street to have a refreshing coffee after the visit.

I'm sorry because I don't have six stars. The place is more than incredible. It's on the beach, wonderful sea and it has been carved by a single fisherman and his son after his death. So beautiful. There are sun light effects and springs

Great cool place. Need more preservation. It's a bit touristy but worth a visit, especially for the low cost. Beautiful location.

Interesting place and.church. unfortunately it is not very well preserved and there doesn't seem to be any effort for preservation. Upper paintings are almost gone and the statues show hard signs of decay. Still this is an interesting place.

Unusual chapel carved out of a cliff. Origins lie in the legend of the gratitude of sailors all saved the the intervention of the Holy mother when their ship sunk. Access from Pizzo best by Tuk tuk to top of steps down to little beach cove and Chapel entrance.

Nice small beach with shower. There were no shadow you must bring your own umbrella. Sea clean. Recomand it

Super

Nice beach

(Translated by Google) The free city beach, or rather a bay, is characterized by blue water and a fairly gentle descent, there is a shower but there is no changing room. There are bars and restaurants nearby, as well as a promenade. From there you can admire the beach and the Old Town towering over it. When in Pizzo, you must try the most famous Calabrian ice cream, Tartufo di Pizzo, in the Dante bar ice cream parlor located in Piazza Repubblica, the main square of Pizzo, one serving costs €5. (Original) Darmowa miejska plaża a właściwie zatoka,charakteryzuje się błękitną wodą i dość łagodnym zejściem jest natrysk ale brakuję przebieralni. W pobliżu znajdują się bary i restauracje jest też promenada. Można z niej podziwiać plażę oraz górujące nad nią stare Miasto. Będąc w Pizzo koniecznie trzeba spróbować najsłynniejsze lody Kalabrii Tartufo di Pizzo w lodziarni bar Dante znajdującym się na Piazza Repubblica,głównym placu Pizzo jedna porcja kosztuje 5€

(Translated by Google) Pizzo has a very beautiful town center with a huge piazza and the Murat Fortress. Very long sandy beach with bathing bays. A grotto with sculptures can be visited on the beach. (Original) Pizzo hat einen sehr schönen Ortskern mit riesiger Piazza und der Festung Murat. Sehr langer Sandstrand mit Badebuchten. Eine Grotte mit Skulpturen kann am Strand besichtigt werden.

(Translated by Google) A great place to relax - swimming, sun, the sea water is of perfect quality, nearby it is full of restaurants offering great Calabrian cuisine, the famous Italian ice cream and, last but not least, aromatic Italian coffee. (Original) Страхотно място за релакс - плуване , слънце, морската вода е с перфектно качество, на близо е пълно с ресторанти, предлагащи страхотна калабрийска кухня , така известният италиански сладолед и не на последно място ароматно италианско кафе.

(Translated by Google) A nice small beach on the promenade of the beautiful town of Pizzo. (Original) Sympatyczna niewielka plaża przy promenadzie pięknego miasteczka Pizzo.

Great place for panoramic and portrait photos! Perfectly preserved this fortress. The Aragonese castle (Murat Fortress) was built on the coastal cliff in the 15th century, but gained fame three centuries later thanks to Joachim Murat. Murat was Napoleon’s marshal and married to his sister Caroline. Disillusioned with the success of the military company, Murat fled from the unwashed imperial Russia from her masters and slaves to the side of the enemy. In October 1815, he was arrested, imprisoned in a fortress in Pizzo and after the trial was shot. Now in the fortress-museum you can see the camera of Murat, the scene of the court, the prisoners and their guards, all the figures are made of wax. From the balcony of the fortress offers a beautiful view of the sea, we were there at sunset.

Nicely preserved castle with a small museum inside. Definitely worth the entrance fee of 2.50 EUR. Great view over the harbour.

The castle is quite well preserved and there is an exhibition there of puppets arranged to represent inmates from the time when Murat was imprisoned at the castle. I found it a little bit disappointing that the castle focused on Murat so much, I think the castle has so much more history to it and all of it shouldn't just be pushed aside to accommodate this Murat guy.

Nice ancient fort and prison. Nice wiews to the city and the sea. Interesting expositions. Recomand to visit this place.

Lots of re-creations of a soldiers life in an old round castle. At this time no explanations in English A short visit but enjoyable.

No waiting time. Tickets can be bought at the location.

A historical place in Pizzo. There is a small museum with literature. A 30 min adventure which costs next to nothing to enter.

The hours have changed. Right now in July it's open from 9 to 19:00 every day. But in August it stays open til midnight every day. €5, or €3.50 for 65 and older

Interesting story, and beautiful architectural construction.

The owner of the restaurant will offer you the freshest and tastiest fish. 🚨attention: high-level service! Italian, English language. The most delicious is antipasto crudo 🥂🦪🥂

Best restaurant in town! Super nice owner (Giovanna) and her son! Totally worth it. The waiters are also all super friendly. The fileja tomato ricotta Nduja is a beautiful simple and fresh pasta dish to try. Don’t forget to try the Pizzo truffle ice cream. It’s fantastic!! (It’s not made of truffle but just had the shape of it). We love Pepe Nero!

The roasted swordfish and the "frittura" of shrimp and squid were both delicious! The swordfish was thick and not at all dry and the squid were soft and not rubbery... everything was cooked absolutely spot on! We also took an "insalata di mare" as starter, which tasted OK. The side fried potatoes (with and without onions) were fine too. Considering the quality of the food, the cost per person of ca. 30€ was fair. The service was a bit slow (hence not 5 stars) but the owner and the staff were very friendly. We would recommend this place for a delicious fish-based meal and would go there again on our next trip to Pizzo.

Great and smiling staff, best lunch in Pizzo. You wouldn’t think so, being in a beachy, touristy area, but it’s so so good. Great outdoor seating. Get the Fileja - it’s the best (perfect spiciness) but don’t forget the tartufo for dessert - made in house! Yum yum yum! Tell Giovanna we said hi! She’ll give you tips for eating around this area and she’s so wonderful, as is her staff. Finish with limoncello!

I liked the dishes with the exception of the “Tagliata” which was very poorly made! The prices of the dishes were reasonable for the place but charging €10 per person without offering a piece of bread or salt and olive oil I thought it was a steal. If that's how they want customers, they're found wrong. I would go back for the dishes, and the location but not for the price per person. Be aware!

The food was extremaly fresh and delicious!!! Highly recommended place in Pizzo! I will come back here for sure soon!

Had the best table in the house, and the service was really good. There were not a lot of choices for non-seafood eaters, but carbonara was nice

I found the restaurant the last day of my holiday and its such a shame because was one of the best ones in Pizzo. The food was fresh and wonderfully done. Ivan was very friendly and professional. Highly recommended.

All the food was super good, but don’t buy the steak we asked for medium rare and it came well done. They took it back and said it will be here in 5 mins. Currently 15 mins in and I’m waiting this review.

We had originally planned to have our first dinner in Pizzo at Petit Jardin but they had an emergency that evening leaving the place closed and us without a supper pick. But every cloud has a silver lining we chose Il Cappero Rosso and we were not disappointed. Excellent pizza, excellent prices and great people to spend our evening with we couldn't ask for a better start to our vacation even if we were half asleep from traveling to get here.

When you've navigated all the icream places, this is mainly the only one actually serving food. Service was as expected, and food was generally good.

Great food and good service. The Linguine Pistacchio e Vongole were amazing, tasty and generous. The service was a bit firm but the food definitely made up for it.

Our favorite restaurant in Pizzo. Avoid all of the square and touristy places (overlooking the sea) and seek out recommendations in other areas. Terrific meal, but the highlight was this Calabrian Appetizer plate for IIRC 8 euros. We split it!

The food was delicious, we ordered the French fries and grilled veggies with a tuna steak and linguini al pistacchio e vongole. The service was excellent due to rocco being their to serve honestly great man deserves a raise ! 👍👍 The at.osphere was excellent the plaza of pizzo and where it was situated all in all perfect And compliments to Rocco

The food and the service is pretty good. The price is ok, but caution because whatever you order you will have to pay for the cutlery that is not cheap.

The standout at this restaurant is the white pizzas, they are so amazing. I’d like to give this restaurant a higher rating but the pizzas with tomato base and the wine wasn’t as good as some other restaurants in the area.

Recommended to us by a friend living in Pizzo. Staff were attentive, even bringing out the fresh fish available to choose. We shared the crab legs to start, which were absolutely delicious. My partner had the catch of the day and swordfish made to order, our friend had prawn linguine and I had lasagne, everything was perfectly cooked and no extra seasoning required. We shared a carafe of house white which again was delicious and refreshing. We had limited time as heading to the airport after eating and the staff accommodated with fast and efficient service.

Services vs Prices, I would say it was very good. It is easy to access Pizzo. The owner even drove me to Pizzo and asked me to call when I was ready to return. Very nice staff and good food.

Beautiful setting, friendly, pleasant atmosphere and fabulous service. Food very good and tasty.

stayed one night on our way to Sicily, great room, excellent food and a very helpful staff, liked it so much we will stay again on our return trip.

Tired hotel. Poor breakfast. Friendly staff.

Ok

(Translated by Google) I have been coming back to this place for many years because it is not posh and glitzy as you often see around, but actually clean, courteous and with honest prices. Open for 3 generations it continues to be a great place to stay. (Original) Torno in questo posto da tantissimi anni perché non è sciccoso e sbrilluccicoso come spesso si vede in giro, ma concretamente pulito, cortese e con prezzi onesti. Aperto da 3 generazioni continua ad essere un ottimo posto per soggiornare.

(Translated by Google) We spent 10 days in August in this hotel. The facility has potential, but is poorly managed and poorly maintained. Rooms quite good, breakfast poor, buffet but table without crockery and little choice. We had half board, the chef was good, he never asked if we wanted an encore of any dish. Helpful but unprofessional waitresses. Very qualified at the reception Mr. Frank. Good location for the beach and Pizzo city 5 km away. The swimming pool and garden which could be very beautiful, are not well looked after. (Original) Abbiamo trascorso 10 giorni in agosto in questo hotel. La struttura ha potenziale, ma gestita male, poco curata. Camere abbastanza bene, colazione scarsa, a buffet ma tavola senza stoviglie e poca scelta. Avevamo la mezza pensione, bravo il cuoco, mai chiesto se si desiderava il bis di qualche piatto. Cameriere volenterose, ma poco professionali. Molto qualificato alla reception il sig. Franco. Buona la posizione per la spiaggia e Pizzo città a 5 km. La piscina e il giardino che potrebbero essere molto belli, poco curati.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful free beach, maintained by the Spiaggia degli Dei bar, which also offers umbrella service on request. The sea is crystal clear, the water does not immediately become deep. In summer it is quite crowded especially from mid-morning (Original) Spiaggia libera molto bella, manutenuta dal bar Spiaggia degli Dei, il quale offre anche servizio ombrellone su richiesta. Il mare è cristallino, l'acqua non diventa subito profonda. In estate è abbastanza affollata soprattutto da metà mattinata

(Translated by Google) A bar to avoid!! a capari soda with very little gin, served in paper cups, without chips, nothing, just ice, 7 euros!!! For an improvised bar (and it's obvious that this is the case) on a beach it's really exaggerated! A robbery!! That's why no one was there!!! These places only give bad publicity to our Calabria, they wait for the unfortunate person in question to fleece him!! It should be noted that on the same day in Scilla, always capari with gin served in a glass in a bar in the main square full of people and complete with a panoramic view, paid €3. I hope that this review of mine is useful to tourists who are in those parts...avoid!!!!! (Original) Un bar da evitare!! un capari soda con pochissimo gin, servito in bicchieri carta, senza patatine senza niente solo ghiaccio 7 euro!!! Per un barrettino improvvisato (e si vede che è così) su una spiaggia è davvero esagerato! Un furto!! Ecco perché non c'era nessuno!!! Questi locali fanno solo brutta pubblicità alla nostra Calabria, aspettano il malcapitato di turno per spennarlo!! Da precisare che nello stesso giorno a scilla, sempre capari con gin servito in bicchiere di vetro in un bar nella piazza pricipale pieno di gente e con tanto di vista panoramica, pagato €3. Spero che questa mia recensione sia utile ai turisti che si trovano da quelle parti...evitate!!!!!

Dined here several times - warm welcome and excellent food! Steak (filet) cooked perfectly (med rare) and pizzas light and airy. I also recommend the house red - their very own wine. Excellent - buon appetito!

A typical family run Italian run pizzeria. However its decor is what sets it apart from other restaurants. It is very modern inside which is great to see. The food is good (we had had better meat elsewhere but the pizza was good) and the service very good - little tiny things they did went above and beyond service in other restaurants. They also say they are pizza all hours which we didn't test but in the off season getting pizza at lunch is rare so would be interested to see if that is indeed true

(English Version) If you come to Pizzo Calabro, this is the best spot in town! My family and I absolutely loved everything about it; the food, the scenery, and the service which is impecible. The staff are prompt, wiling and able to serve you (with a smile as well!). The general manager is more than pleasant and knows how to make you feel at home. And the food, WOW! I am currently writing this review as I dive into the insalata di polpo, awaiting my Antonella pizza (update, get the Antonella and the Viva Napoli pizza!). Try everything on the menu if you can honestly. This place is Calabria! This place is Italy! This is what you need in your life! Thank you for beautiful service and food, grazie mille!

We stopped for lunch by chance and what a pleasant surprise. Wonderful.

Great food, reasonable prices :)))

Ok

(Translated by Google) Negative experience, I absolutely do not recommend. Once we got to the cashier and after having received the detailed bill, we realized that we had paid for an extra pizza that had not been eliminated. I politely pointed out the error. The result? The owner, after having responded rudely, took the liberty of going into the kitchen to get the pizza peel and then approached me and my friends in a threatening manner. Non-existent education, terrible person both as a man and, above all, as a restaurant owner! (Original) Esperienza negativa,sconsiglio assolutamente. Una volta giunti in cassa e dopo aver avuto il conto dettagliato,ci siamo resi conto di aver pagato una pizza in più che non era stata eliminata. In modo garbato,ho fatto presente l'errore. Il risultato? Il titolare,dopo aver risposto in modo sgarbato,si è permesso di andare in cucina a prendere la pala per pizza per poi avvicinarsi in modo minaccioso nei confronti miei e dei miei amici. Educazione inesistente,persona pessima sia come uomo che,soprattutto, come titolare di un locale!
