Piscine naturelle de Baia dei Turchi

À Otrante, cachée dans le maquis méditerranéen à quelques mètres de la crique de Toraiello, dans la zone de Santo Stefano, se trouve une piscine naturelle.

Elle a été découverte il y a quelques années par le vidéaste Roberto Leone, avec la collaboration de son collègue Marco Spedicato, grâce aux images capturées par la caméra de son drone.

La piscine naturelle, techniquement une dolina, c'est-à-dire un bassin fermé qui pourrait avoir été généré par l'effondrement d'une grotte, est située à une courte distance de Baia dei Turchi, une station balnéaire bien connue du Salento, dans les Pouilles, très fréquentée par les touristes italiens et étrangers. Le site est entouré d'une arche en pierre qui offre une vue imprenable sur la mer Adriatique.

Ce n'est pas la première fois que Roberto Leone fait des découvertes similaires : en mars 2017, en effet, le vidéaste a tourné un film sur l'île en forme de c?ur à Porto Cesareo.

La découverte de la piscine naturelle d'Otranto, dans les Pouilles, a réveillé l'attention des citoyens et des touristes sur cette région du sud de l'Italie qui figure parmi les destinations les plus prisées de notre pays pendant la saison estivale :

Dans la liste des plages les plus belles et les plus méconnues des Pouilles, on trouve, entre autres, la plage de Sospetto à Vico del Gargano, la plage de Macello à Bisceglie, la Cala della Sanguinara près de Vieste, la Fontana delle Rose à Mattinata, la Baia dell'Orte à Otranto, l'île de San Pietro à Tarente et les plages de Melendugno.
