Cala Sala (Portacola - Portalga)

Highlight • Beach

Sheltered beach. You can cross here to the other side of the bay, although this is not indicated on Komoot. So you don't have to make an unnecessary detour.

View of Scoglio dell'Eremita

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view towards the Scoglio dell'Eremita is a delight for the eyes. From there, you can admire the sea that opens up to infinity, the waves that delicately crash on the rock, and the sky that seems to merge with the water in an endless embrace. It is a perfect place to relax and be inspired by nature.

Incina Tower

Highlight • Monument

Located along the coast between Polignano and Monopoli, the tower was part of the three towers (Ripagnola, San Vito and Incina) built for defensive purposes in the 16th century by Pedro of Toledo, following the numerous pirate attacks that affected the area. Today, however, the tower flanks its namesake cove, known to most for its crystal clear waters, as well as particularly popular and frequented by divers in the area, attracted by the various caves and inlets in the area.

Defensive tower

Highlight • Historical Site

The World War II defensive turret near Cala Incina is a historic structure used during the conflict to monitor and defend the coast. Built to spot and repel any enemy attacks from the sea, it now offers a fascinating glimpse into the region's wartime past. Located in an area of great natural beauty, it is a point of interest for history and nature lovers, ideal for exploring on a scenic walk.
