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

its intensely glorious and at times dramatic past; the
splendid Cathedral overlooks the town, along with Saint
Peter's Basilica, Martyrs' Hill, the Castle, the Towers, the
Bastions, tha Aragonese Walls |

and the fortified farmhouses, a
must for all visitors to Salento. The coastline around Otranto
boasts large, clean, sandy beaches, vast areas of pine groves,
rocky cliffs and an ocean bed like an underwater garden. |
With its breathtaking sea views
Otranto is a paradise for all nature lovers.
Otranto lies at the most easterly point of Italy. |
