SECRET SALENTO

Welcome to Salento, Italy

In the very tip of the heel of boot-shaped Italy (the southern region of Puglia, Italy), Salento surprises its visitors with its rich history and turquoise seas that wrap around the peninsula. Virtually untouched by the hordes of tourists that swarm the majority of the country in every season, Salento is simply a little pearl waiting to be found. But prepare yourself for the journey.
