La Perla del Salento

Area Mare

The area where Agriturismo Perla del Salento is located is one of the most picturesque along the Adriatic coast, particularly on the northern side of Otranto. Here, you will find the Alimini Lakes, two natural basins surrounded by dense Mediterranean vegetation and extensive pine forests that stretch down to the sea. The beaches that border these lakes are among the most beloved in Salento, featuring long stretches of light sand and crystal-clear waters that gently slope, making them ideal for families with children as well as for those who enjoy walks along the shoreline.

A short drive away lies Otranto, a charming town with its historic center enclosed by Aragonese walls. As you stroll through the cobblestone streets, you'll encounter artisan shops, restaurants, and sudden breathtaking views of the sea. Don’t miss the Cathedral of Santa Maria Annunziata, famous for its 12th-century mosaic floor, and the Chapel of the Martyrs, which bears witness to a centuries-old history connecting the town to the Mediterranean.

Surrounding landscapes alternate between agricultural settings and stunning coastlines. To the south, you can reach Cape Otranto, the easternmost point of Italy, dominated by the Punta Palascìa Lighthouse, a particularly enchanting spot at dawn. Heading inland, you will find characteristic villages such as Carpignano Salentino and Martano, which preserve Grika traditions and rural Baroque architecture.

The agriturismo's location also makes it easy to visit Lecce, the capital of Salento Baroque, and Santa Maria di Leuca, where the Adriatic and Ionian seas converge. This region combines unspoiled nature, ancient history, and rich culinary traditions, offering a variety of experiences for those who love the sea, culture, and fine dining.
