The Puglia Coastal Walking tour is a breathtaking excursion along the coast of the heel of Italy, where perfect beaches and blue ocean beckon at every turn. Combine stunning Italian scenery with charming villages, vibrant history and wonderful Italian food and wine.
The Puglia Coastal Walking tour begins with the fresh air of the ocean greeting you in Otranto. You’ll dip into the Idro Valley beside a flowing spring. Orchards, olive groves, and orange trees line your adventures before you find yourself in quaint seaside towns.

Rest in the shade before hiking back to the coastline, and indulge in a luxurious swim in the deep blue water.
The Puglia Coastal Walking tour will lead you up to the ancient Messapian town of Castro, where you’ll explore the historic old town before hiking to a hidden swimming inlet. Sip local iced coffee while you walk through Tricase Porto, or dip your feet at Marina Serra.
The Puglia Coastal Walking trip ends in Lecce, a beautiful baroque city you’ll never want to leave. Book your spot on the Puglia Coastal Walking tour today, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure!
