What to do and see in Otranto, Puglia: The Best Beaches

February 9, 2022 Nicolette Lion

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.

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.
