Polignano

A pearl of the Adriatic

If you are organizing a trip to Puglia, your tour cannot miss a day in Polignano a Mare, one of the most beautiful villages, not only in the region, but in the entire country.

La bellezza di Polignano non risiede solo nelle sue acque cristalline, ma anche nel suo affascinante centro storico con le sue case in pietra, logge panoramiche, intricate stradine e terrazze che offrono splendide vedute sul mare.

The beauty of Polignano lies not only in its crystal clear waters, but also in its charming historic center with its stone houses, panoramic loggias, intricate streets and terraces that offer splendid views of the sea.

Polignano a Mare is famous for being the birthplace of Domenico Modugno, and a statue dedicated to him is a must-see for visitors. Next to it, a staircase leads to an extraordinary terrace from which you can admire Lama Monachile, one of the most iconic and photographed places in the city. Don't forget to take a photo with your arms wide open under the statue of Modugno, almost like a superstitious ritual.
