It stretches along the Tyrrhenian Sea and is known for its agricultural productivity, particularly in growing citrus fruits, olives, and vegetables. The area is surrounded by the Aspromonte mountains, providing a scenic backdrop to the landscape. This plain is also significant for its transportation links, including the Gioia Tauro Port, one of the largest container ports in the Mediterranean.
