<\/p>\n

Santa Maria di Leuca is a town full of suggestions, different souls, history and inspiration. Let’s get to know it better<\/h3>\n

Santa Maria di Leuca is a very suggestive point of interest in Salento<\/a>.<\/p>\n

About 80 km away from the city of Lecce, the path to reach it is rich in beauty, which runs along from the coast that sees the Ionian Sea flowing on one side and the Adriatic Sea on the other, or from the florid and Mediterranean hinterland.<\/p>\n

Santa Maria di Leuca is an apex, a limit that unites the two souls of Salento, the one linked to the Ionian Sea and the one linked to the Adriatic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, actually the Ionian and the Adriatic are not just two seas that bathe the Salento from two sides, but they are two different ways of experiencing the sea that have, in some way, over the centuries, also marked two different ways of being in the world among the inhabitants of the territory.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rocky and iridescent the Adriatic, emerald green and restless being exposed to different winds;
\nblue, almost always calm and accompanied by sandy beaches, the Ionian.<\/p>\n

These are the two souls of Salento and they meet here, in this mother-city that brings together the soul of those who live and those who travel here.<\/p>\n
