Characterised by vast areas of secular olive and
orange groves, the territory extends from the Tyrrhenian coast to
Aspromonte’s slopes, boarding with the Serre. In the middle of it
develops the Piana di Gioia Tauro. Numerous are the spring of
mineral and hot mineral waters: “del Grillo” of Giffone, in the
Zomero area and in Galateo, where we find the main thermal bath
centre of the province. Thanks to a tunnel that crosses the
mountains of the Limina and to the dual carriage way
“Ionian-Tyrrhenian” is possible to reach in a brief time the other
reggina coast.
Gioa Tauro’s port, with more than 3 million moved Teu every year,
and a prospect of trashipment that keeps on growing, represents the
strategic and logistic platform of the Mediterranean. Even is been
active just a few years, thanks to its 3.145 mt of wharfs and a back
port area of 1.240.000 msq., it has become one of the principal port
in the world. The sea depths that reach till 14 mt., allow the
docking of over 6.000 Teu.
