Cape Palascìa, commonly known as Capo d'Otranto, is Italy's most easterly point. It is situated in the territory of the Apulian city of Otranto, in the Province of Lecce at 40° 7' northing and 18° 31' easting. The lighthouse there, recently renovated, is one of five Mediterranean lighthouses protected by the European Commission. It is often visited by tourists, especially at New Year, since it stands at the point where the dawn of the new year may first be seen in Italy.

We visited during the busy season but found this place much less crowded than the nearby Torre Dell Orso and San Foca. The backdrop is outstanding, the water is the clearest we have seen in Puglia abs it’s great for a swim or for diving off rocks!
