Porto di Miggiano
Porto Miggiano - Santa Cesarea Terme
Porto Miggiano is a tourist resort in Salento and overlooks a stretch of coastline that sees the prevalence of wide cliffs that end directly in the sea and the presence of numerous caves and inlets all worth visiting. We are located on the southeastern side of the Salento coast, where the mighty Adriatic Sea washes these shores, and Porto Miggiano, usually an almost desolate village in the winter becomes populated as never before in the height of summer with tourists and locals who during the summer months move in from the cities opening their summer homes and enjoying this spectacular landscape. Porto Miggiano is part of the municipality of Santa Cesarea Terme, and in addition to being home to the sixteenth-century tower of the same name, with the presence of the striking Grotta delle Ancore, the Pilane and the more famous Spiaggia dei Cento Scalini, it also has a small marina that in midsummer is taken by storm by swimmers and tourists looking for a bit of coolness from the summer heat.The harbor is located in a characteristic artificial bay that sees the presence from high white limestone walls from which there is a beautiful panorama that mixes the green of the headlands surrounded by Mediterranean scrub with the blue of these transparent waters. The sea is shallow at first and is ideal for families with children, plus Miggiano Harbor is not very far from the center so it should be easy to reach a bar or a market to refresh yourself with some drinks. At the height of summer, Miggiano Harbor attracts many people because of its convenience of being easily reached and also because it is a tourist attraction as well as a meeting point. There is a summer air here with that slight warm breeze that usually blows in these parts, and the sensations one gathers by frequenting this quaint little port are more than positive. Scent of Salento summer surrounded by the beauties of Porto Miggiano ... have a good vacation.
