According to today's understanding, southern Italy usually begins in Abruzzo and also includes the regions of Molise, Campania, Basilicata, Apulia, Calabria and the islands of Sardinia and Sicily. The region is ideal for camping by the sea and camping on a farm. Beautiful bays, long sandy beaches and hospitable farms can be found in abundance in the region, which is still characterised by agriculture.
Mediterranean landscapes with tall cypresses, cacti, rugged cliffs, picturesque mountain villages and azure blue sea promise an ambience that you certainly won't find in northern and central Europe. Between volcanoes in Sicily or on the Calabrian beach, you can experience the southern Italian way of life at first hand. Apart from the large urban centres, southern Italy is relatively sparsely populated and camping in southern Italy is still more of an insider tip, as most campsites are concentrated in northern and central Italy.
However, the Ionian Sea, the tip of the boot and Sicily also offer campsites in southern Italy with breathtaking scenery. This is precisely why camping enthusiasts in Italy can benefit from magnificent landscapes, uncrowded campsites and good conditions. The south is waiting to be discovered and savoured!
The city of Naples, from where ships also depart for Sicily and Sardinia, is a good starting point for travelling on to the remotest corners of southern Italy. Two recommended routes to Naples are from Stuttgart and Munich. Travelling by motorhome or camper down to the deep south is an unforgettable experience in itself.
Via Stuttgart: On the first stage along the A7 motorway, the route takes you past Ulm and Memmingen. When you reach Hattingen, we recommend a refreshment stop at the Rosenberger Pettnau motorway restaurant with its hearty Alpine cuisine on the menu.
Next you pass Innsbruck and finally the Brenner Tunnel to Italy. The journey on the motorway continues along the cities of Bolzano, Trento, Verona, Modena and Florence. The latter city is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks to its Renaissance architecture and is ideal for another stop for refreshments or for sightseeing. The route continues on the E35 past Rome and finally to Naples. In total, the route from Stuttgart to Naples is 1263 kilometres.
Via Munich: The journey from Munich is 1106 km and takes you via Unterhaching, Rosenheim, Kufstein and Innsbruck. From Innsbruck, we recommend taking the same route on the A13 motorway as from Stuttgart.
Camping under the warm southern Italian sun is an invigorating pleasure and the zest for life increases with each passing day. In addition to swimming in the sea or excursions to the national parks, city trips are an interesting and inspiring pastime. There are plenty of beautiful cities in southern Italy. Here are two suggestions:
The crystal-clear, azure blue sea nestles against rugged cliffs in Bari and the surrounding area, creating a truly impressive picture. In addition to the marvellous idleness of the beach or a delicious evening meal on a cliff terrace, the city offers further opportunities for exploration. Narrow alleyways and tall houses that tower above the cliffs as if carved from ancient stone give Bari a very special charm.
Bari also has several spectacular caves that are a must-see. By the way, why not combine good food with a visit to a cave? The Ristorante Grotta Palazzese offers exquisite dishes in a cave with impressive sea views.
The historic town of Cefalù on the north coast of Sicily offers a whole armada of historic buildings including a Norman cathedral, a 12th century fortress with Byzantine mosaics and twin towers, a museum with archaeological excavations and, last but not least, a historic washing place.
Situated directly on a well-equipped sandy beach, the town's time-honoured silhouette offers the best conditions for bathing fun and authentic maritime cuisine. To the west of the town along the beach there are numerous cosy campsites in a wild and romantic natural setting.
Of the numerous activities and excursions in southern Italy, maritime activities and visits to sites of historical relevance stand out from the crowd due to the local conditions.
Italy is a fishing nation and if you have a soft spot for this sport, southern Italy is an excellent choice. Depending on the opportunity, Italians fish from the beach, from the cliffs or on the open sea. Swordfish, tuna and mackerel are just some of the regional fish species.
The advantage of fishing from a boat is that you can quickly move to another location if you are unsuccessful. In Apulia on the east coast of southern Italy, there is a beautiful cliff coast that is not particularly well known among fishermen and is ideal for fishing for barracuda and bonito.
The ancient city near Naples was hit by an eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. People, animals and houses were preserved under the fossilised lava. The world-famous ruined city gives an insight into life back then and makes many people shudder at the thought of the terrible catastrophe. You can learn a lot about the Pompeians and their way of life on guided tours and, of course, the site is an ideal destination for very special photo opportunities.
Plenty of sunshine, fertile lava soils and underground springs make the south Italy's breadbasket for good reason. Juicy citrus fruits, flavoursome tomatoes and intensely fragrant herbs such as basil, oregano and rosemary grow here. This results in delicious dishes that are known far beyond the country's borders. Red wine, fresh fish, meat, cheese, pasta and a wide variety of vegetables are the daily bread.
Excellent cheeses made from sheep's and goat's milk are a favourite. Abbacchio is a roast lamb dish that is often served with mint and spiced artichokes. Caprese, on the other hand, is a popular summer dish made from tomatoes, mozzarella, olive oil and basil. Swordfish and mussels are also popular and even more enjoyable. Whatever it is, you can never eat enough in Italy.
Southern Italy, including Sicily and Sardinia, is probably one of the sun's favourite regions, as the weather is wonderfully warm all year round. Even in the middle of winter, temperatures rarely fall below 10 degrees. Temperatures during the coldest months are much higher at around 15 degrees.
Dry and very hot summers are common and temperatures above 40 degrees are quite common, as North African weather influences come into play depending on the current climatic conditions. The summer months are of course ideal for enjoying a refreshing dip in the sea. However, the temperatures during spring and autumn are also quite pleasant and still suitable for swimming.
