Visiting the beaches of Melendugno and the surrounding coast means discovering a corner of paradise where nature will take your breath away. Its landscapes will remain etched in your memory. Located in the province of Lecce, this seaside town not only is a serene setting for relaxing but is also an ideal starting point for exploring some of Salento’s most enchanting beaches.
Between towers and stacks: the coast of Melendugno
The municipality of Melendugno boasts several beaches known for their pristine beauty and crystal-clear water.
Among these, Torre Specchia Ruggeri, San Foca, and Torre dell’Orso with its golden sand and the two stacks (“the Two Sisters”) watching over the bay.
Not far away, the Faraglioni of Sant’Andrea (the stacks of Sant’Andrea) rise from the sea like natural monuments, offering an ideal setting for photography lovers and coastal trekking.
Baia dei Turchi and Otranto: history and wild nature
Continuing along the coast, you will find Baia dei Turchi (bay of the Turks), an inlet accessible only on foot through a pine forest.
This place is full of history and legends, perfect for those looking for a wilder and more isolated sea experience. Venturing further south you arrive in Otranto, a city rich in history with a lively cultural life and beautiful beaches.
Tricase and Porto Selvaggio: coves and natural parks
For those who wish to explore lesser-known areas, Tricase offers hidden coves and transparent waters, while Porto Selvaggio, with its natural park, is an oasis of biodiversity, ideal for walks among the Mediterranean scrub and swimming in fresh, invigorating waters.
The Cesine Natural Park: a refuge for avian fauna
Don’t forget to visit the Cesine Natural Park; this protected area represents one of the last examples of salt marsh in Salento. Here, nature and tranquility come together, creating an ideal habitat for spotting rare avian species.
