Traveller notes on Tropea in September
Other months in Tropea
Tropea's forum calls July generally reliable Calabrian summer weather, though regulars caution that even Italy can occasionally deliver an unseasonably cold, wet stretch. Regulars flag mid-July through end of August as genuinely crowded, with sunbeds and umbrellas at a daily cost on the busiest beaches, and suggest September as an alternative with equally good weather and far fewer people.
