The route of the "Giulia Andrea" is one of the most beautiful and fascinating in Salento, with stops along the way that will allow you to swim, sunbathe in total relaxation and admire the breath-taking views of the Adriatic coast.
We take off from the port of San Foca (Marina di Melendugno), a town on the Adriatic coast of Salento, 2 kilometers from Torre dell'Orso, 16 km from Otranto and about 20 km from Lecce. From San Foca we head south, towards Roca Vecchia, an ancient fortified city, where we will stop to swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Grotta della Poesia and to visit the fascinating archaeological excavations nearby.
The trip continues to Torre dell'Orso, a seaside resort characterized by its beach of fine silver coloured sand and spikes of limestone that are home to numerous ravines and the picturesque Grotta della Monaca. On the south side of the bay, a short distance from the beach, two sea stacks of similar shape meet under the name of "The two Sisters".
