In Santa Caterina there is an enchanted place unknown to tourists but jealously guarded by locals and Neretini (inhabitants of Nardò). It is a slice of cliff overlooking the sea at Santa Caterina that can easily be seen as you take the long walk towards Santa Maria al Bagno. It is said that at the beginning of the 20th century, a fairly rich lady had this stretch of cliff modelled, creating stairways that alternate with lounges. This is what is rumoured by the locals, everything is to be verified and in any case it is nice to leave this thin thread of mystery enveloping the cliff. You can dive from various heights, the water is high and beautiful all the time. Finding parking is a little difficult, especially in high season.
