Ceglie Messapica, is one of the oldest cities of Salento belonging to the province of Brindisi in Puglia. The village is located near Ostuni which is only 12km away and is part of the Valle d’Itria, also known as the Valley of the Trulli. In addition to the interesting traces of the past that saw it as an important Messapian outpost, Ceglie boasts the recognition of the gastronomic capital of the Alto Salento, thanks to the many awards won by important chefs working in the area and to the many recently started cooking schools. This is where the International Mediterranean Gastronomy Center is located and, over the years, Ceglie Messapica has developed a refined restaurant circuit. The historic centre of Ceglie Messapica is very suggestive and is formed by a tangle of alleys paved with local stones called “chianche” – whitewashed arches of lime and ups and downs.

Ceglie Messapica is located almost in the centre of the Salento peninsula, between the provinces of Taranto, Brindisi and Bari, in fact, the two seas, Adriatic and Ionian, are almost equidistant from the town. On the side of the Adriatic Sea 15km away we find Ostuni with the beautiful beaches of Pilone, Costa Merlata and Specchiolla up to the Natural Reserve of Torre Guaceto, a specially protected marine area that offers enchanting beaches and crystal clear waters. On the Ionian side, the numerous seaside resorts that follow one another along the Litoranea Salentina will surely amaze you with their transparent water which, especially on cold days, takes on colors and shades of blue similar to those of the Caribbean as well as for breathtaking sunsets. Among the most appreciated places of the Ionian Sea we mention the beaches of Pulsano and Lizzano, the enchanting bays of Punta Prosciutto and Torre Lapillo, the latter classified by the British newspaper The Guardian among the 10 most beautiful beaches in the world.
