Gallipoli, also known as "Città Bella" or "Beautiful City," enchants visitors with its captivating blend of sun-drenched beaches, historic charm, and vibrant nightlife.  This gem graces the coast of Salento in the heart of Puglia.  Gallipoli's old town, steeped in history and surrounded by Roman and Byzantine fortifications, sits on an island connected by a bridge to the newer district.

Explore the imposing Angevin Castle within the old town, or admire the Lecce Baroque style of the beautiful Cathedral of Sant’Agata.  Just steps away, discover more historic treasures at the Church of Santa Maria della Purità. 

Beyond the historic sites, unwind on Gallipoli's stunning beaches, reminiscent of the Caribbean.  The long coastline offers a variety of options, from Lido Conchiglie to Baia Verde.  For pure relaxation, soak up the sun by the sea at Lido San Giovanni.

As night falls, Gallipoli comes alive with a vibrant nightlife scene.  Enjoy the bars, dance clubs, and discos, or sip sunset drinks with DJ sets or live music at Cotriero 376.  For a locals' favorite with good service and beachside vibes, head to Blu Cafè.  Dance, drink, and enjoy the lively atmosphere at Concept Bartending.
