Hotels in Apulia Coast, Italy

The Apulia Coast stretches along Italy's heel, famous for its whitewashed trulli houses and olive groves. Summers are hot and dry (80-95°F / 27-35°C), perfect for swimming in the turquoise Adriatic Sea or exploring the baroque town of Lecce. In cooler months (50-60°F / 10-15°C), you can hike the Foresta Umbra or join a cooking class for orecchiette pasta. For a change of vibe, head to the Gargano Peninsula for rugged cliffs or the Salento Peninsula for sandy beaches-both offer distinct landscapes and water sports.
