The beach’s gentle slope makes it ideal for children and elderly visitors. In the other direction, is the resort of Porto Cesareo (4 minutes) which also has beautiful beaches and lively nightlife. The town’s weekly market (Thursday) is the best place to find the finest local food, including olive oil and a variety of cheeses. There are supermarkets (3 minute drive), smaller food shops and a wide range of restaurants and pizzerias for all ages and budgets close by.

Further down the Ionian coast, the historic town of Gallipoli (30 minutes) is a very popular tourist destination during the summer months. In Greek, Gallipoli means “beautiful city” and the town does not disappoint. The town’s ancient walls soar over the harbour and fishing port. There is a daily fish market where if you go early you can pick up the freshest catch of the day.

The closest airport is at Brindisi - just under an hour away by car.
