This is the inland Salento around Gallipoli, with low limestone ground, olive groves and scattered rural buildings. The Ionian coast near Gallipoli is within about 15 km, with beaches and rocky shoreline around Rivabella, Padula Bianca and Santa Maria al Bagno. The Serre Salentine low ridge country lies across this part of the peninsula rather than any true mountains. Gallipoli is the nearest town of size, with a working old town on an island, port, services and rail links. In this part of Salento the area is known for olive cultivation, wine and summer seaside tourism.
