Gallipoli

Highlight • Settlement

Gallipoli is a city in the province of Lecce overlooking the Ionian Sea. Its name means "beautiful city" in Greek and is divided into two parts: the historic center, which stands on a fortified island full of monuments and churches, and the new village, which extends over the mainland. It is famous for its white sand beaches and crystal clear water, but it is also a city of culture, tradition and history.

Purity Beach

Highlight • Beach

The Seno della Purità is the beach in the historic center of Gallipoli near the cathedral of Sant'Agata, made up of fine golden sand and a transparent blue sea. The name derives from a legend that tells of the discovery of the breast of the Virgin Sant'Agata right in this place. If you pass by in the evening, stop and admire the panorama illuminated by the lights of the castle and the port.

Gallipoli Old Town and Harbor

Highlight • Historical Site

The historic center of Gallipoli is certainly one of a kind: the fortified citadel in fact stands on a limestone islet connected to the mainland by a masonry bridge dating back to the 17th century. Walking through the narrow alleys of the old city at sunset is a truly unmissable experience. As unmissable is the flavor of the "puccia" from Salento, a sandwich with a dough similar to pizza whose fillings vary from octopus to burrata and which can be eaten here in various "puccerie".

Baia Verde - Canale dei Samari

Highlight (Segment) • Beach

This stretch of road from Baia Verde to Canale dei Samari has been forbidden to cars since 2022 and the white beach and crystal clear sea make the place spectacular. The road passes very close to the dunes, so be careful with road bikes as the wind can accumulate sand on the path.

Stone Cairns Collection

Highlight • Structure

Someone, or probably a large number of people, have built a large series of stone towers here. Rough estimate is around 100 from small to large.
