    Busy but still a sense of tranquility and spiritual calm. Easy to access all area even for the less able bodied. Massive car parking space . Small stall holders selling a wide variety of goods at fairly reasonable prices . Small but busy cafe selling a good selection of pasties and snacks busy but worthwhile. Take your time to unwind here and treat it all as a bit of a pilgrimage at the joining of the two seas?

    You wont find this info in many guide books but there is amazing coastline road - SP358 with some superb views and at the end of this road there is this place. We took SP358 from Grotta Zinzulusa down south to Leuca. Superb views👌Well worth it!

    The bottom of so called "italian shoe". Always wanted to visit it. Nice, touristical city, but not very crowdy though. Near the lighthouse is place for suvenirs, they are quiet expensive, magnet costs 2 euro. Can make nice pictures of it. I liked. There is great place to park a car, in a city seems is even place where you can rent an ebike. So, yes, must enjoy it!

    The sanctuary is very beautiful on the inside. It is strategically located on top of a hill that gives you a great panoramic view on the sea and the port.

    Well worth a visit. Set in a place of outstanding beauty and its geographical position. The basilica has quite a history as well.

    This Basilica, named "The End of Land" is built at the southernmost tip of the Italian heel, at a place where the Adriatic meets the Ionian sea. The 18c Church with adjacent Monastery is on top of a hill above the town, imo a very average one, both outside and inside. Many souvenir stalls around further ruin the feeling, making it a very touristy place. From the Church terrace is really a great seas view, but that's it - a max 45 min visit including the time for finding parking which is really an issue in August peak season
