    We took a wonderful evening excursion, departing from the port of Santa Maria di Leuca and sailing along the coast to San Gregorio. We saw the caves of the Ionian coast. The very kind and knowledgeable skipper/guide was able to give us detailed information and convey his love for Salento. Thanks, Gigi.

    It was the best experience of our trip to Puglia. It includes a generous appetizer that was enough for dinner. Swimming in the open sea is an experience you can't miss.

Santa Maria di Leuca is a stunning coastal town located at the very tip of Italy's boot, where the Ionian and Adriatic seas meet. Famous for its picturesque landscape, rich architecture, and crystal-clear waters, this charming destination is a perfect blend of relaxation, history, and natural beauty. Whether you're a lover of the sea, a fan of local cuisine, or someone looking for peaceful walks along dramatic cliffs, you’ll find plenty to enjoy here.

A glimpse into the past

With ancient origins, the area was once a sacred place for Greeks and Romans, who believed it marked the end of the world. Over centuries, it has grown from a humble fishing village to a beloved seaside retreat, known for its iconic lighthouse and impressive basilica.

Best time to visit

While the town is beautiful year-round, the best months to visit are from late May to early October. During these months, warm temperatures and calm seas offer perfect conditions for swimming, boat tours, and outdoor activities.

How can I get there?

The town is easiest to reach by car from Lecce or Brindisi. Public transport is also available, but having your own vehicle offers more flexibility to explore the scenic routes and nearby attractions.
