👍👍 Cominciamo col dire che l'organizzazione è da manuale. Arrivo sul posto e la guida (una simpaticissima dipendente del Comune) mi dà un benvenuto che sorprende: "Sono qui per lei !" Esordisce e di lì comincia un visita fatta con un racconto appassionato , sapiente, accorato. Crede in quello che fa e...

😠 Careful of Robbery!!! Very nice beach with free parking. I would have given it 5 stars but I got robbed here. I mistakenly left my bag pack in the back seat of a rental car under the seat and locked my car (double checked). In it, I had my Bose headphones and Nintendo switch, some cash, clothes and...

👍👍 Da sempre il faro (ed il porto) caratteristici della zona e meravigliosi. Chi commenta, con pochezza, descrivendoli come "niente di che" sono sicuramente turisti nuovi che non lo hanno vissuto appieno durante gli anni e non sanno cogliere le bellezze tradizionali e caratteristiche del luogo. Non è u...

👍👍 Vi invito a visitare la chiesa di Casaranello, un luogo mistico tutto da scoprire! È uno dei luoghi più antichi del Salento, malgrado sia ancora poco conosciuto dai più. La facciata esterna lascia molto a desiderare, invece, l’interno lascia davvero senza parole. Infatti, è possibile ammirare degli...

👍👍 Fantastic and very suggestive place, I was born and live in Lombardy but my roots are well rooted in the high murgia where I have my origins, my parents are both from Gravina in Puglia! As a child, in the 80s I spent the summers in my uncle's farm in the Dolcecanto area and I always dreamed of cros...

👍👍 The castle of Deliceto is a very important historical site in the province of Foggia. Easily accessible thanks to a car park where, however, the lift does not work. Very well looked after like the whole country. During the Christmas period it is festively decorated creating a Santa Claus House. High...

Complex of underground caves featuring prehistoric wall paintings depicting deer-hunting scenes.

👍👍 Great important historical sight. Amazing view of the battlefield.

👍👍 Big places near sand beach and dragon rocks bays with plenty of krabs. Ok toiletes , warm showers. Good prices. Big places with lot of privacy. Staff friendly. The children animations are not disturbing our places for caravans. Places close to bar are litle noisy. The evening live performane I liked...

👍👍 The pit (from the Latin fovea) has a bell-shaped cavity dug into the ground (called karst, from karst) below street level, in order to preserve cereals, almonds, broad beans and flax seeds. The average capacity is around 500 quintals (although some even reach 1,100 quintals). The internal walls wer...

👍👍 J'ai passé une après-midi merveilleuse à me balader le long du chemin en terre qui passe devant cette grotte. La vue sur la mer est magnifique, les couleurs sont à couper le souffle. Attention, ce n'est pas facile d'accès, il vous faudra parfois rentrer sur un chemin privé, passer sous un grillage e...

😐 Small in size and with a white facade, this church preserves many valuable paintings from the Neapolitan school. On the high altar, the Virgin della Purità between Saint Joseph and Saint Francis of Assisi, attributed to the Neapolitan artist Luca Giordano. Also noteworthy is the majolica floor, the...

👍👍 Wunderschön der Strand, allerdings klein und man liegt nah beianander. Schirm und Liegen für 20€.

👍👍 Bellissima! Da vedere assolutamente. Si può visitare solo con una guida dell'associazione. All'ingresso troverete degli orari e dei giorni limitati, ma qualora doveste trovarvi in zona in altri orari, non esitate a chiamare al numero indicato perché potreste trovare una guida disponibile anche fuori...

👍 Church located on the highest point of the island of San Nicola. Finished building in 1045, it has a legend behind it. It speaks of a hermit who does not know where he came from, one fine day the hermit had a vision of the Madonna who asked him to build a church in her honour. The hermit who was ve...
