Your Destination —
The historical town's main symbol is Villa Sticchi - a Moorish dome of the late 19th-century which resembles a small mosque perched on a cliff just a few meters away from the sea. The local skyline is shaped by the extravagant lines of the town's noble dwellings: Villa Raffaella, Palazzo Tamborrino, which plummets down to the sea, and Palazzo Gargasole, which today houses the fascinating Museo degli Orologi delle Torri Civiche (Museum of Civic Clock Towers).
The region is well regarded for its precious springs of sulphurous water, which flow from four natural caves along the coast, making the area of Santa Cesarea an important thermal centre, popular for its specialised medical cures and personalised treatments.
A path through Aleppo pine trees leads to the highest part of the town. From here you can look over the coast, all the way from the natural sea pool at Porto Miggiano to the coastal towers striking out towards Otranto, and the spur of Santa Maria di Leuca.
