Torre Canne Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

The majestic Torre Canne lighthouse is the symbol of the Fasano marina, 35 meters high, it was built in 1928, in the Fascist era, and the first two families of lighthouse keepers moved to the parallel rooms located at the base of the structure, which became the home of the Lighthouse keeper.

It was necessary to always be near the lighthouse, since the maintenance it required at the time was daily, and the work was full of responsibility: the employees had to recharge the lamp every 2-3 hours and turn on the lantern above, which gave the possibility to the lighthouse of Torre Canne to illuminate the coast.

Monopoli South – Capitolo Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful bike path. It is not immediate to see it, you take it from Monopoli Sud coming from Capitolo and start with a short cycle path on the right and then branch off into a small road on the left. Highly recommended!

Porto Ghiacciolo Beach

Highlight • Beach

Porto Ghiacciolo is one of the most charming coves in Monopoli, located south of the city center, at the foot of the Abbey of Santo Stefano. This beach is characterized by fine, light sand, crystalline waters that vary from emerald green to intense blue, and gently sloping seabeds, making it ideal for swimming and snorkeling. The name "Ghiacciolo" comes from the fresh sea currents that cross the area, giving the water a pleasantly refreshing temperature even in the hottest months.

Fishing port of Savelletri. The port is protected by an approximately 330 m long breakwater and a small quayside breakwater. Surrounded by several bars and typical restaurants, it is an excellent point to use as a lunch / aperitif stop.
