Gaze out at the azure Adriatic Sea from the sunny beaches of Otranto, in Italy's Puglia region. This historic port town attracts locals and tourists to its 10km of beaches and diving rocks. In town, the cathedral features large-scale mosaics dating back to the 12th century. If you love snorkeling and beautiful seaside views, it's worth making the short journey south to Porto Badisco.

We spent one hour with these beautiful horses on a trip to the bauxite lake. For us it was a beautiful experience, for how easy-going but at the same time safe the organisation was. The horses are wonderfully trained and truly cared for! During the trip a group of 10-14 people ride together in a snake-like queue, and this "caravan" vibe was for us part of the charm. The landscapes are awesome with a mix of countryside full of olive trees, orchards and sea views. All of this under the supervision of 2/3 skilled instructors. We really recommend it and suggest to book one or two days before.

Easily one of the most interesting churches in the entire region. The early medieval floor mozaic based on a tree of life motif is incredible and is in fantastic condition.

This has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world to take an evening stroll. You will have amazing vistas on one side and restaurants on the other. My uncle tells me the area has a Capri-vibe.

The Historic Center of Otranto is fairly small, set right on the seaside with some impressive hills. The real stars are the walls, Cathedral and the wonderful views.
