Corinthian Basilica and Column in Santa Maria di Leuca
It's not the typical seaside resort we're used to seeing, it's much more: Leuca is also famous for the elegant 18th century villas that are in the its territory, which give a very special touch to the panorama.
The sea of Santa Maria di Leuca is spectacular! Its waters are of intense turquoise, which enchants and fascinates those who visit it! The visit is also rewarded by the presence of natural caves with ancient inscriptions in Greek and Latin, moreover there are findings of great archaeological importance. The climate is Mediterranean, I would say it's also very pleasant.
Some of the places I recommend visiting are: Grotta Porcinara, Grotta del Devil, Grotta dei Giganti< ; /strong>, Cazzafri Cave, the beautiful Basilica of “Santa Maria de Finibus Terrae “, the beautiful church of Christ the King, the Tower of the Dead, from the 16th century, and the Lighthouse of Leuca, opened in 1866.
Don't forget to taste the delicious typical dishes i and local... I recommend Muschiska, a delicious and tasty lamb meat, seasoned with garlic and chili pepper! The dessert, on the other hand, I recommend the Caccarelle and the Pasticciotto.
Have a good trip and enjoy everyone!
