How about a trip to Italy West Coast

Italy West Coast Jun

SummaryA Brief Summary

By far Italy’s most visited region and it’s really not difficult to see why. Rome, Italy’s capital, is a mad, chaotic, bustling, dizzying mix of youthful exuberance and ancient history, all melting together in a colourful delight of a city.  From the worlds smallest country, The Vatican, deep within the bowels of Rome itself and the stunning murals in and around the equally beautiful St Peter’s Basilica, to all Rome’s individual treasures, ruins, fountains, steps, cathedrals, theatres and so much more.
Further down the western flanks of Italy, you come to the Amalfi coast, and the beautiful city of Naples.  The northern reaches in and around Naples are littered with things to see, do, eat and enjoy and you could easily spend a week just within the confines of the city and its suburbs and not tire of the history, views, architecture and of course the food.  Then there is Vesuvius, looming oh-so-large over Naples, with nearby Pompeii, having fallen foul of the aforementioned volcano many, many years ago.  Then, a smidge further south along the Amalfi coast you reach oh-so-trendy (and pricey) Capri.
Towards the southern end, and Italy’s toe, you come to Calabria, regarded as the Caribbean of the Mediterranean owing to the glorious beaches, hilltop vistas and relaxed vibe.  This is not an area you’d immediately think of for a beach holiday, but it really does tick every box and if you tire of topping up your tan then head inland for some quiet towns, dozens of lovely little churches and little cafes and restaurants.  If you’re travelling down here, just be cautious on the roads while driving, as the standard of local driving isn’t quite what you’d like and expect it to be!

WeatherAbout the Weather

Rome’s weather is akin to other large cities on the Mediterranean, with cool to mild winters (November to February) that see heavy showers and infrequent storms, mild to warm spring and autumns and hot, dry and sunny summers. Winter months can be pleasantly warm, or cold and occasionally snowy, but are often mild with light rain interchanged with sunshine. Spring is mild in March, but very warm by late May, with sunshine levels averaging more than 8 hours a day during May and rainfall reducing to only a handful of days a month. Summer months from June to September are hot and sunny and mostly dry, but not immune from heavy, thundery showers, some of these can be intensely heavy with large hail. Heatwaves in summer are also oppressive and humid and can last for several days or a week at a time. Autumn is warm and bright, but increasingly wet and sees Rome’s most changeable weather and its heaviest rain.
