Via Solferino, 20, Presicce-Acquarica

The area is the Salento plain in the far south of Puglia, with flat to gently rolling ground dominated by olive groves and cultivated land. The nearest coast is the Ionian shore around Lido Marini and Torre Pali, with low sandy stretches and small coastal settlements. Santa Maria di Leuca is the nearest major landmark of the lower Salento tip, where the peninsula narrows and the Adriatic and Ionian sides meet. Casarano and Tricase are the nearest larger towns in daily use, with hospitals, secondary schools and the main services for the inland part of the lower Salento. Presicce is known for its underground oil mills and for the historic fabric typical of southern Salento towns.
