Africo, Administrative commune in Reggio Calabria, Italy.

Africo is a commune located in the Metropolitan City of Reggio Calabria in southern Calabria. The settlement sits within Mediterranean terrain and maintains road connections with neighboring communities in the region.

This commune developed over centuries as a rural settlement rooted in Calabrian local history. The settlement underwent administrative reorganization as regional governance structures evolved in southern Italy.

Local residents maintain strong connections to Calabrian traditions through regional festivals, communal gatherings, and agricultural practices that shape daily life.

The locality is accessible by local roads and offers basic services to both residents and visitors. The best time to explore is outside the hottest summer months when conditions are more pleasant.
