The Grotta dei Cervi is a characteristic sea cave located in Porto Badisco along the eastern coast road leading to Otranto in the province of Lecce. The Grotta dei Cervi is of fundamental importance both from a landscape point of view and also from a prehistoric one, as wall paintings dating back to the Neolithic period have been discovered inside it and are currently the most impressive pictorial complex in Europe. Unfortunately, for obvious safety reasons and to preserve these important paintings, the cave is currently closed to the public. It is developed through three large corridors on the walls of which prehistoric evidence of the peoples who inhabited this area is imprinted, with representations of various hunting scenes including several deer, hence the name Grotta dei Cervi. This characteristic sea cave can however be admired in all its evocative beauty from the perspective of the sea, which as a viewpoint is certainly worth taking advantage of, perhaps by hiring a boat and contemplating first of all the beauty of the surrounding nature with this stretch of coast coloured by the green of the Mediterranean maquis and where the limpid Adriatic Sea with its crystal-clear blue waters provides the setting. Let yourself be massaged by that special breeze that usually blows here in the height of summer, you are on holiday in the company of the sun that warms your hearts and it is only the sound of the outboard motor that accompanies your excursion to discover this beautiful coastline... happy holidays from the Grotta dei Cervi.

The names of beaches, lidos, natural swimming pools, caves, coastal towers, nature parks and reserves, along with the names of accommodation facilities such as hotels, bed and breakfasts, agritourisms, holiday homes, resorts, hostels and campsites, are deliberately left in their original language to respect the culture, historical identity and authenticity of the area.
