Grotta dello Zingaro

Roca Vecchia - Melendugno

Among the many caves of the Salento, present for the most part along the south-eastern coast of this fantastic area, a special mention goes to the Grotta dello Zingaro in Roca Vecchia. This beautiful example of a cave is characterised by two main entrances that communicate with each other through a small man-made tunnel that starts from the mainland and ends in the sea; the place adjacent to the Grotta dello Zingaro stands out for its scenic beauty from which one can admire the entire surrounding landscape at a glance. The cave can be easily reached from the sea on the other side of the entrance, which is however completely flooded with some smooth rocks emerging a bit everywhere. The sea is an infectious blue; these waters have been awarded the prestigious Blue Flag in the past and maintain a unique transparency. The Grotta dello Zingaro (Zingaro Cave) is often visited in the height of summer and is very well known and sought after in the area. So many beauties that this marvellous land offers to the many visitors who every year decide to spend part of their holidays along these coasts in search of moments of relaxation and wellbeing, all this is the magic of Salento, greetings from the Grotta dello Zingaro.
