Gagliano del Capo

A quiet town at the heel of Puglia, closer to the Grecìa Salentina coast than to anywhere tourists usually stop.

Gagliano del Capo sits near the very bottom of the Salento peninsula, a short drive from the cliffs and grottoes around Santa Maria di Leuca where the Adriatic and Ionian meet. It's a working small town rather than a resort — flat-roofed stone houses, a slow midday, and the coast a few minutes away by car.
