It is one of the Cosenza Province's most attractive, well-laid-out and picturesque towns with a rich and fascinating history having been occupied by many different nationalities from an Arabian strong-hold, Greeks, Romans and the Byzantines, who built a castle on the hill above Amantea to protect the town – this can still be seen today.
Set against a backdrop of mountains, Amantea, today is a busy town with all the modern amenities: variety of shops and boutiques, café bars, restaurants/pizzeria, gelatarias, pharmacies, post office etc. this blends well with the charming old historical centre where you can meander through the traditional narrow streets and enjoy the true feel of Calabria, enjoy an ice cream in one of the famous gelatieria of the area and from the kerbside seats overlook the marina town and spectacular views of the sea and coastline. The marina beach front offers beach bars and lidos and a small Acqua Park, children’s play area and a variety of seasonal activities.
