Grotta Palombara is located south of Otranto near the Masseria dell"Orte on the eastern side of the Salento coast and is washed by the Adriatic Sea. This impressive cave was formed when the limestone walls along this stretch of coastline collapsed, creating an extraordinary example of a sea cave. Grotta Palombara can also be reached from the mainland, but the best way to admire such beauty is certainly access from the sea, where the water is still quite deep and through mask and flippers you can also contemplate a wonderful seabed rich in life. The entire surrounding area is covered by typical Mediterranean scrub and not far from Grotta Palombara we find a pine forest that is always convenient for the large areas of shade that always come in handy in the height of summer. The place is not very crowded and you can breathe an air of absolute relaxation, the cliffs maintain a practicable aspect and access to the sea is easy in some places; the sea has that crystal-clear and transparent characteristic that distinguishes the entire coastal area, so once you have chosen the spot where you can lay down your towel, take advantage of it for a regenerating swim and enjoy your day at the sea. Glimpses of a Salento to be experienced and vibrant emotions at Grotta Palombara... happy holidays.
