Scalea in Italy is one of the perfect places to spend time. Scalea has a lot of shops, bars, restaurants and can be rather crowded in August. My favorite months here are June and September! Scalea is a seaside resort, in addition to the long, very long stretch of beach that seems to never end. It has its night life, parties, amazing sights, nearby small cities worth visiting too. You cannot miss it! #foodie #beachlife #italy #staycation #summervacation #awesomepic #naturalwonders #beaches
