Puglia, the peninsula on the heel of the boot of Southern Italy, about as far south as you can go on the Italian main land. So much to see, so much to discover, explore, experience. Sights, smells, flavours.
Long a holiday destination for Italians and now fast becoming a favourite for visitors from throughout Europe and much further afield. Now you can discover the secrets of Puglia, this is your chance to experience Italian life as the Italians live it. If you crave the heat of the southern sun and the warmth of the southern Italians then this is the place for you.
But don't expect noisy nightclubs, all day breakfasts, fish and chips or roast dinners. This is not Ibitha or Tenerife or other well know tourist hot spots. Neither is it the South of France. Sometimes shabby, somewhat down at heel in places, this is the real Italy. Here you will find acres of peaceful olive groves, sandy beaches, rocky coastlines, amazing architecture, years of history, restaurants from the simple trattoria to the more up-market masseria and excellent food and wine.
With so much to explore, here we have gathered together information about our beloved Puglia to help you plan and enjoy your vacation in la bella Puglia. From beaches up and down both coastlines, sleepy villages, historic centres of Puglia cities and towns, places of interest and much much more.
