3 Discesa Ospedale, 89861, Tropea
Been here?
This is free roadside parking with some spaces before and after the bend, including sea views. The beach is nearby, and stairs lead to Tropea’s center in 5 minutes; the historic center is about 500 m away. There are no services, and toilets or showers are not easily accessible. Several recent stays were peaceful, but someone hit a car at night during another recent stay.

Someone hit our car at night. Not peaceful behavior.Translating
Great spot, everything has already been written about it, and we would come here again! You just need a bit of luck to get a space. We stayed here for three days/two nights at the beginning of May, without any problems.Translating
An absolutely excellent place to stay during the low season, at least! We stayed here for three nights and had no problems whatsoever. There is room for all kinds of motorhomes and camper vans. The only negative is that there is no easily accessible shower or toilet. Apart from that, a great place!Translating
Absolutely wonderful spot, also suitable for large motorhomes. We spent three wonderfully peaceful nights here. A fine sandy beach is directly adjacent on the right, and on the left, stairs lead into the beautiful little town center within five minutes, with lots of restaurants, winding streets, and so on. Highly recommended. We would stay here and visit Tropea again anytime. A dream. Thank you, Tropea.Translating
Recommended outside the high season: the spaces on the street are free, wide enough, and there is little risk of being hit by the rare passing vehicles. No services, but a magnificent view of Stromboli! A good alternative to the very expensive parking area or campsite located at the foot of the sanctuary. We spent an excellent night here. The historic center and shops are five minutes away via the stairs.Translating
Great free park up during the day and night. Although on the road it’s one way plus not a lot of traffic. Walk up lots of steps to town which is really nice or stroll along the beach. We have 6 metre motor home and it was fine and stayed within the lines.
Magnificent parking area for spending a peaceful night. During the day, quite a few locals stop on the benches opposite. Be careful to park on the correct side. There are no lines, so long motorhomes can park.Translating
We spent one peaceful night here. Parking is right on the road, but the slow cars passing by didn't bother us. We also left our van here while exploring the area, and nothing happened. It seems safe.
This parking spot is truly beautiful and peaceful. You can hear the sea, and it is 500 meters from the historic center. Recommended.Translating
Perfect, right next to the beach and a staircase leading up into town! Free and spacious. We did not sleep there.Translating
Free parking, level and very close to the beach. The police passed by a couple of times to check that everything was in order. Close to the stairs leading up to the center!Translating
From Lido Calypso to Lido Tropical there are many free parking spaces with white lines. We arrived this evening and, despite it being August, found plenty of free parking because there was a storm during the evening. We will spend the night here.Translating
