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. 
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, 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.
