Area mid-centre

Castro is one of the treasures of Salento, located on the Adriatic side of Puglia and surrounded by lush nature featuring olive groves, Mediterranean scrub, and steep rocky cliffs overlooking the sea. The historic center of Castro Alta, just a short walk from B&B Il Giardino, retains an authentic and charming atmosphere, characterized by its cobbled streets, the remnants of ancient Messapian walls, the cathedral, and the Aragonese castle that dominates the landscape. As you descend towards Castro Marina, the scenery transforms: the coastline becomes wild and rugged, dotted with natural coves, spectacular caves, and small beaches with crystal-clear waters. The Zinzulusa Cave, one of the most significant in Salento, is a must-visit for nature lovers and geological wonders. Along the coastline, you'll find a mix of equipped beach establishments and stretches of free beach, ideal for those seeking relaxation and a direct connection with nature. In the surrounding area, there are also plenty of opportunities for excursions and leisure activities: boat trips along the coast, diving, snorkeling, and hiking on scenic trails. In the evening, Castro comes alive with cultural events, local eateries, and a vibrant summer atmosphere. Nearby, you can also explore other points of interest such as Santa Cesarea Terme, Otranto, and the inland Salento countryside, rich in tradition, authentic flavors, and hidden beauties waiting to be discovered.
