Otranto, a lively tourist centre built around its castle and cathedral, is the easternmost Italian town.
The centre of Otranto, with small pedestrian lanes and stone houses is a lovely place for a stroll. Traditional restaurants and shops selling every kinds of goods can turn a day or night excursion into a delight.
Not to be forgotten the sandy beaches that stretch from Otranto going north (such as Alimini Lakes' beaches - in a protected ecological area).
