Raver I confused about one Mediterranean coastal area (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

riviera

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'coastal area' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'raver i confused about one' is the wordplay.
'confused' indicates an anagram.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'raver'+'i'='raveri'
'raveri' is an anagram of 'rivera'.
'rivera' enclosing 'i' is 'RIVIERA'.

'mediterranean' is the link.
This may not be correct. It may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?
