Otranto:where nature is also history

Otranto: a small town for a big holiday. An important historic and artistic centre, Otranto lies on one of Italy's most beautiful coastlines, the sea that laps against its shores is limpid and intense in colour.

Otranto presents itself to the visitor in the guise of a medieval city, still attached to the periods that preceded its destruction.

Rich in remains, which testify to its intensely glorious and at times dramatic past;

the splendid Cathedral overlooks the town, along with Saint Peter's Basilica, Martyr's Hill, the Castle, the Towers, the Bastions, the Aragonese walls and the fortified farmhouses, a must for all visitors to Salento

The coast-road is one of the most poetic tourist itineraries in the province.

It seems made just for the purpose of holding the interest of the traveller in search of new sensation and appealing to his imagination.

With its breathtaking sea views Otranto is a paradise for all nature lovers. Otranto lies at the most easterly point of Italy: in summer you can get across to Greece.
