Relais La Giara is situated in an area that embodies the essence of northern Salento, surrounded by countryside dotted with olive groves and vineyards, and the Ionian coast with its golden beaches. Just a few minutes away from the property lies Manduria, a city steeped in history and charm, renowned for its Primitivo wine and its enchanting historic center, characterized by cobblestone streets, ancient churches, and noble palaces. Here, you can also find the Archaeological Park of the Messapic Walls, a testament to the ancient civilization that inhabited the region, along with the Pliniano Fountain and an extensive necropolis.
Not far away is the Taranto Eastern Coastal Nature Reserve, a protected area featuring sandy dunes, salt marshes, and Mediterranean scrub, perfect for hiking and birdwatching. The Salina dei Monaci, with its pink flamingos and crystal-clear waters, is one of the most picturesque spots for a nature walk. A little further on, the Bosco Cuturi offers shaded trails among oaks and pines, ideal for those who enjoy trekking and the serene atmosphere of the forest.
For beach enthusiasts, the beaches of San Pietro in Bevagna are just a ten-minute drive away, boasting transparent waters and unspoiled views. From here, it’s easy to explore the Ionian coast all the way to Porto Cesareo and Santa Maria di Leuca, or travel to Lecce and Taranto to immerse yourself in history and Baroque art. The area is also a hotspot for food and wine lovers, thanks to the many wineries and farms that offer tastings of local wines and products, providing an authentic Apulian experience.
