The Lamezia Terme International Airport (SUF) is located just 3 kilometres from the Lamezia Terme's city centre. Buses to and from the airport are operated by local companies, such as Autolinee Romano, Autolinee Lamezia Multiservizi, and Autolinee Ferrovie della Calabria. They usually leave every 20–30 minutes and run between the airport and a variety of stops within the city and the Sant'Eufemia train station as well as other cities like Crotone, Cosenza, and Catanzaro.
There are also several taxis waiting outside the terminal. It is advisable to only use metered, city-approved taxi cabs. Taxi fares depend on the time of day you’re travelling, your final destination as well as the number of passengers and how many pieces of luggage there are.

Passport & Visa
Citizens of European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries do not need a visa to enter Italy, only a valid ID. Many other countries, including the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and New Zealand, benefit from visa-free entry for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period.
Visitors from visa-exempt countries must hold a valid passport and, starting in late 2025, will need to apply for an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) authorisation online before travelling.
For those requiring a visa, such as travellers from some Middle-East, African or Asian nations, a Schengen visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All travellers should ensure their passport is valid for at least three months beyond their intended stay.

Best Time to Visit
Calabria is located in southern Italy and, as such, is characterised by a hot and dry Mediterranean climate. There are, however, differences inside Calabria: the west coast, for instance, is generally colder and rainier and has high cliffs and small beaches, while the east coast is influenced by the hot and dry air of Africa, and has plenty of large, sandy beaches. The inner part of Calabria is mountainous and experiences low temperatures and heavy snowfall in the winter.
If you want to enjoy the beaches and attractions this region has to offer, summer is the best season, roughly from June to September. This period is when most people decide to visit Calabria, as the weather is nice and you can enjoy the vibrant nightlife and the many festivals the major cities have to offer, such as the Tropea Red Onion and Bluefish Festival in Tropea.
