Just a 10-minute drive from Area Camper Rivamare, a walking and cycling path runs from Posto Rosso to Torre Suda with the sea always by your side. Rocky coastline, the scent of Mediterranean scrub and endless blue: put on comfortable shoes and off you go.
A wooden fence, the sound of the waves, the coastline opening up in front of you. Your seaside walk begins with the very first step.
The path runs along the rocky coast, just a few metres from the sea. The scent of Mediterranean scrub and sea fennel, blue as far as the eye can see. Go at sunrise or sunset: the light turns pure gold.
The rocks open into small coves of crystal-clear water. Along the path you will find Baia dei Diavoli and La Piscina. Stop and look: the whole Ionian Salento is right here.
Clear water, warm stone under your feet. When the sun warms the rocks, step down gently and let the crystal-clear sea of Salento embrace you: fresh, transparent, all yours.
Families, friends, cyclists and hikers: this path belongs to anyone who wants to breathe in the sea.
A video of the seaside path, then it is up to you to set off.
Area Camper Rivamare is waiting for you in Torre San Giovanni: open 24 hours a day, just steps from the sea.
