Salento

Salento

Salento is an enchanting land, whose landscape is shaped by beautiful white beaches, crystal green water and red soil where the typical olive trees grow. It is a place at “the end of the world”, literally translated from the Latin appellation of S.M. di Leuca “Finibus Terrae”, but for a long time it has also represented a bridge between the East and the West.

Salento is a touristic destination for every age and touristic style, it can provide you with any comfort you may need and also offer you some adventure. For lovers of responsible and slow tourism, many paths give the possibility to retrace pilgrims’ steps to Leuca’s Sanctuary or the old salt smugglers’ route from the seaside to the different towns.

Come and discover this land’s secrets and traditional flavours.
