Salento

At first glance we could characterize Salento in three words: Sun, Sea, Wind. All true. The sun illuminates the colors of the landscape. The coastlines - sandy and rocky - are extensive and eliminate discontent. The sea breeze propels the waters. But there's much more.

​

The sun, the sea, and the wind are there together with a rich history embedded within the landscapes, the olive groves, and vineyards.

​

In Salento, you can follow an itinerary tracing back to a distant yet remarkable time in history: from the Messapian and Roman, to the Byzantine, Norman, Sicilian, Bourbon Arabian, and Spanish. Every small town preserves beautiful churches and noble palaces that enchant with astonishing architecture.
