Punta Prosciutto - Porto Cesareo

Punta Prosciutto is one of the most striking and unspoiled marinas in Salento, located in the northwestern part of the peninsula, between the towns of Torre Lapillo, Porto Cesareo and Torre Colimena, in the municipality of Manduria. It overlooks the Ionian Sea, offering breathtaking views and a crystal clear sea that attracts many tourists every year. Punta Prosciutto beach is famous for its fine, golden sand that stretches for several kilometers, creating an expanse of great natural beauty. The area is characterized by Mediterranean vegetation typical of Salento, which includes Mediterranean scrub, junipers and native plants that give an atmosphere of serenity and tranquility. The coastline, partially protected by high and natural dunes, preserves a wild landscape that has not undergone invasive interventions. The dunes, which wind along the beach, create spectacular scenery, especially at sunset, when the sky is tinged with warm colors and the sea reflects the light in a play of shades. The marina of Punta Prosciutto is an ideal destination for those looking for a quiet place to enjoy the beauty of nature, away from the chaos of the more crowded tourist resorts. The area is also perfect for walks along the coast, thanks to its wild nature little modified by man. The sea, with shallow and sandy bottoms, is perfect for families and for those who like to swim in calm and transparent waters. In addition, the proximity to Porto Cesareo, famous for its historic center and its wonderful islands, and the presence of the nearby Torre Lapillo and Torre Colimena, further enrich the tourist offer of this marina, which represents a corner of paradise in the heart of Salento.
