Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesWith so many coastal towns close by, there is something to keep holidaymakers of all ages entertained.
Of course, the beaches will keep kids entertained and parents are in luck as many of the nearby beaches are family-friendly, especially those at Torre San Giovani that have awards for being clean and safe. At Gallipoli, Zeus beach and Spiaggia Baia Verde di Gallipoli are very child-friendly. Families should definitely take on the waters by boat, seeing the dramatic cliffs from a different angle.
Lecce is a great place for a day trip, with so many historical spots to immerse the children in. There’s a lot of things to keep children entertained and educated, from the Basilica di Santa Croce and Museo Faggiano - who doesn’t want to learn about knights.
