Grotta dell"Orte is a beautiful sea cave located in the Masseria dell"Orte area south of Otranto, in Baia delle Orte. We are on the southeastern side of the Salento coast, along a stretch of sea that immediately stands out for its wonderful transparency. This area is characterized by a wide reef that excellently draws a landscape of rare beauty. The Grotta dell"Orte represents one of the many sea cavities along this coast and can be reached by swimming, or it can be admired in all its complexity by renting a small boat so as to explore the entire stretch of coast in question, which certainly deserves to be visited in depth. The sea soon becomes deep and the beauty of these seabeds offer the right reasons to put on a mask and go discovering the most interesting spots; alternatively, a healthy regenerating swim can also do the trick, after which it is easy to find an inviting corner on which to spread your towel and let yourself be dried by the warm Salento sun. The beautiful view of the cliffs covered in the green Mediterranean scrub is unmatched in terms of scenery, here it is all a riot of bright colors ranging from the yellow to the limestone white of the surrounding rock to the blue of these cool waters. Salento remains a magical land that knows how to give enormous emotions to those who decide to visit enchanting places like the Grotta dell"Orte... happy vacations.
