The entire coastal village of Santa Maria di Leuca, between the two promontories, is characterized by beautiful villas, authentic jewels of liberty architecture that stand out the dozens of villas that characterize the coast.
The Monumental Waterfall of Santa Maria di Leuca is the end of the Apulian aqueduct and is entirely carved into the rock.
The Santa Maria di Leuca Lighthouse, located on Punta Meliso about 4 km from Gagliano del Capo, is an icon of Salento. Standing at 47 metres (102 m above sea level), it is one of the tallest lighthouses in Europe.
Punta Ristola is a rocky promontory jutting out to the west that offers, at sunset, a unique spectacle
It is the southernmost point, along with Punta Ristola, Salento and Puglia, which fascinates millions of tourists every year: it is the resort Punta Meliso, which marks the borders of Santa Maria di Leuca and the meeting point of the two seas: the Ionian and the Adriatic.

Nice boat trip. Captain Mino was very helpful and friendly. He accompanied us on a visit to a splendid cave not visible from the outside.
Grazie mille 😍
It was fantastic, a fabulous experience!
Grazieeee😍
Three hours spent quickly; this happens when the time is quality. Mino, the skipper, was up to the task in illustrating the history and curiosities of the place and the coast during the navigation, in addition to two ideal stops where we enjoyed a swim in crystal-clear waters. The aperitif at the end of the tour was very welcome. Absolutely recommended. GREAT JOB
Grazie mille 😍🫶
Excellent experience, competent and friendly guide, capable of pleasantly entertaining the guests. Highly recommended!
Grazie 😍
A beautiful boat trip at sunset with breathtaking views and interesting explanations of the history of the place and the various caves visited, an excellent aperitif with local products
Grazie mille siamo felici che il tour sia stato di vostro gradimento 😍
The tour was so relaxing, educational and beautiful all at once! I went with my husband, my brother and my father - and it met all our expectations. The skipper was knowledgeable and very personable; we stopped in two different spots to swim & he never rushed us. And the apperitivo was a nice touch! The boat was also spacious but not too crowded with a perfect mix of seating under the shade, or to lie out on the deck!
Grazie mille per le belle parole! Sapere che il tour ha soddisfatto le vostre aspettative è per noi la soddisfazione più grande. Grazie ☀️🌊
Wonderful trip! Afternoon with calm sea and full sun, Mino's welcome and entertainment were special, a sunny, nice person with a big heart! The caves, the swim, and the sunset with an aperitif! I would do it a thousand times again ❤️
Grazie per aver scelto di vivere questa esperienza con noi. Sapere che porterete con voi un bel ricordo della giornata è la soddisfazione più grande! 🌊❤️
We spent a beautiful and very relaxing day. There was a calm and pleasant atmosphere on board. Riccardo welcomed us with an excellent Salento-style aperitif and took us to the most beautiful bays for swimming. He was always kind, helpful, and attentive to making sure we were comfortable. You can tell he loves what he does and that makes the experience even better. We had so much fun and can only recommend it to everyone. Thanks again, Riccardo! If we return to Salento, we will definitely go on another trip with you.
Grazie 😍 Sapere che avete trascorso una giornata di relax e che Riccardo vi abbia fatto sentire a vostro agio ci rende davvero felici. vi aspettiamo per un’altra uscita in mare quando tornerete nel Salento! 🌊☀️Un saluto da Riccardo ❤️
Had the best boat day! Was very relaxing, nice small group with room on the boat. Learned lots and had time to swim in two different spots. The captain was great, I was by myself and he was very nice and welcoming and didn’t mind taking a bunch of photos for me!
