Spiaggia dei Ponticeddhri is located at Baia dei Turchi a fabulous inlet not far from Otranto in the province of Lecce. This striking stretch of coastline represents a true natural oasis lost in a time gone by; the stretch of sand of the Ponticeddhri Beach turns out to be little more than a dozen meters and the whole thing is as if swallowed up by the green Mediterranean scrub and pine forests that mark the whole area inserted in a context of wide cliffs and small ravines that characterize much of the surrounding landscape. The crystal-clear sea becomes deep after a few strokes and the rich seabed lends itself wonderfully to those who love snorkeling so as to go on a discovery of the most hidden corners of this fabulous bay. Ponticeddhri Beach maintains an unusual tranquility even during the high season, and the place is ideal for those seeking some relaxation away from the daily grind of modern life. If you are a comfort lover and can"t do without all the amenities you need for a day at the beach well this area is not for you, forget about services and bar kiosks, here you can breathe a wild and lonely something and even your smartphone might be superfluous; so just bring your beach towel, rock shoes, mask and fins and a cooler bag full of drinks for a Cast away day at the beach. This is Puglia and this is Salento, ah I forgot, these places deserve all our respect bring back your garbage bags with you nature will thank you, have a good summer from Ponticeddhri Beach.
