Signature Experiences

Set out to discover the Adriatic coast and explore the many coastal towns located between Otranto, Castro and Santa Maria di Leuca de finibus terrae. As you walk from one location to the next, you can discover Europe's greatest mosaic, admire the Basilica and explore the area surrounding a 19th century lighthouse. Illuminating the routes of sailors on both the Adriatic and Ionian Seas, this coastline, rich in history, wild landscapes, caves and harbours, is known as a bridge that connects the East and West, offering a unique blend of art, culture and panoramic views.
