One of the most enjoyable aspects of traveling in Italy is discovering secret towns that stop you in your tracks — as Gagliano del Capo does for unsuspecting visitors driving down the Pugliese coast.
The town's dry stone walls, round rock farm buildings, and olive trees on Lecce's highest elevation provide a commanding view of the surrounding landscape. Whether you love hiking, cycling, swimming or simply resting on the beach, Gagliano del Capo has something to suit your interests.
