The beautiful city of Nardò is a treasure trove of art and nature, with its precious baroque historical center, lush countryside, and long coast with a crystalline sea, which includes the Porto Selvaggio Park.
A city of ancient origins, Nardò is the most populous center in the province of Lecce after the capital, from which it is 26 kilometers away. It holds precious evidence of its history since the settlement of the Messapians. Just 7 kilometers away, the Ionian Sea bathes the hamlets of Santa Maria al Bagno, Santa Caterina, and Sant’Isidoro.
The Neretina countryside, among centuries-old olive trees and expanses of vineyards, is dotted with farms, many of which are fortified. Homeland of the Cellina olive, Nardò produces excellent extra virgin olive oil, quality wine, and renowned watermelons.
Impressive watchtowers stand out along the coast, embellished by the Park of Portoselvaggio and Palude del Capitano with the large pine forest that extends to the sea.
Sweet coves with small sandy beaches alternate with wild cliffs to admire a splendid sunset over the sea.
