When in Puglia Peschici is a town you shouldn't miss out on. Ok, Puglia has so many wonderful spots. But this is one of the very top. It's a beautiful white-washed old town, sitting on top of a cliff, just by the ocean. The Historic Center is pretty compact, it's an easy stroll. Some streets are cobbled, so be aware of that in case you have a wheelchair or a stroller. Of course you can't drive into the Historic Center, so you drop your car in the new part of town. There are several blue zones with (limited) free parking. But these fill up fast. There are two bigger parking lots (prepaid meter) on Via Monte Santo, south of the Center, but still in walking distance. The Center starts at the Torre Del Ponte, on a smaller square. The Via Roma is the main drag leading through the Centro Storico. Lined with countless restaurants, cafes, souvenir shops, arts & craft shops and more. Via Colombo has some of these too, but less in numbers. Be sure to check on some side streets as well (like the Via Forno). The Piazza de Popolo is a good place to sit down and have a drink or a meal. And watch the world go by. Try "La Taverna". Good food for great prices. The Castello Medioevale sits a the northern end of town, on top of the cliff. That's as far as you go. From here you could go down to the small harbour and the beach. The town is just a sight by itself. It's nice to wander around this small center. Really feels like Greece at times. The style, the colours. It's such a bright, happy and lively place to be.

We booked our guided tour & fishing lesson on the ancient Trabucco easily through wtsapp! We got there on foot as suggested by Gianni...having a nice walk along the coast starting from Vieste Harbour and proceeding in direction of Peschici. As soon as we arrived there, we were welcomed with a great Aperitivo from Gianni Spalatro & Brother, two Master Trabucco Fishermen. Then we started the real fishing Lesson with an historic introduction on the origins of Trabucco. The hole story is full of fashion and captures even children attention! Gianni adapts the guided tour to his public, so he made it in italian Language and then in english. We had a really nice time there and you feel so at your ease, that everybody stays more than one hour..fishing with net, having a nice talk with Gianni & Brother, making pics, observing the romantic sunset...
