When we talk about a magical and fairy-tale Salento, we refer mainly to the stories (cunti in Lecce dialect) told by the elderly or by our grandparents who, to pass the time in front of a pot boiling under the fireplace, entertained the youngest with tales of all kinds at a time when TV was only turned on for the news and smart devices had not yet invaded our minds. It was a "time when people measured time well and certainly did not let themselves be overwhelmed by the daily whirlwind that nowadays pervades the lives of each of us always in search of the constant speed that must distinguish our every single choice. Well, the Cave of Witches fits into this particular context, a very special sea cavity that over time has taken on a multitude of meanings related to the shape of the entrance or the rocks inside the cave that willingly lend themselves to strange human likenesses , and especially the tales that have been passed down from grandmother to granddaughter and so on. The Grotta delle Streghe is located on the coast road that connects the port of Castro to the marina of Miggiano, in the province of Lecce. We are on the southeastern side of Salento, along a stretch of coast characterized by wide cliffs that draw characteristic inlets and a multitude of small and large caves to represent a beautiful landscape. At the Grotta delle Streghe, the sea is blue and deep, and these waters are ideal for those who love snorkeling and exploring the most striking corners of this stretch of coastline. The only way to reach the Grotta delle Streghe would be to rent a boat and embark on a nice tour along the entire Castro Marina, taking advantage of it to also admire the beautiful view that this town offers looking at it from the sea; in the middle of the summer, moreover, several excursions are organized by the various associations that also provide a guide to discover all the caves of Castro Marina. So between fairy tale myths, natural beauty of the place, a sea that invites for a gentle relaxing swim, the sun that warms our body for a perfect tan and the witches who stay to watch welcome to Salento ... and happy vacations.
