Polignano a Mare<\/strong> stands out all white on the sea in a green and blue colored landscape. Among the things to see in this beautiful Apulian village is Lama Monachile: two rock walls that fall overhanging the sea and surround an inlet of sand and crystal clear water. The beach is located in the center. The view from the Bourbon bridge is fantastic. But that’s not all. On the coast of Polignano a Mare<\/strong> there are now more than 70 sea caves that formed due to the erosive phenomena linked to the action of the sea and the wind. To visit them, take part in one of the many boat tours. Polignano<\/strong> is nature and sea, to see and discover. White houses, flowered balconies and many poems written on walls, doors and stairways populate the historic center.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#b88d3c” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true” border_width_all=”10px” border_color_all=”#FFFFFF” border_style_all=”double” border_width_all__hover_enabled=”on|desktop”][et_pb_blurb title=”Monopoli – 8 km from the Villa” image=”https:\/\/luxuryvillamariachiara.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/monopoli.jpg” _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_font_size=”25px” body_font=”|300|||||||” body_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_enable_color=”off” text_orientation=”center” hover_enabled=”0″ border_radii_image__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” border_radii_image__hover=”on|20px|20px|20px|20px” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n A dream sea and a historic center rich in art and history make Monopoli<\/strong> one of the most beautiful towns on the Adriatic.

Here is the Valle d’Itria<\/strong>, a magnificent valley between Bari, Brindisi and Taranto, also known as the Murgia of the trulli<\/strong>. In fact, it is here that the trulli<\/strong>, the famous traditional cone-shaped stone houses, are concentrated. Natural and architectural beauties, combined with food and wine delights, have made the Itria Valley<\/strong> one of the most visited parts of Italy by national and international tourists. The municipalities that include the Itria Valley are: Martina Franca (35 km), Locorotondo (29 km), Alberobello (21 km), Ceglie Messapica (52 km), Ostuni (43 km), Cisternino (36 km).<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#b88d3c” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true” border_width_all=”10px” border_color_all=”#FFFFFF” border_style_all=”double”][et_pb_blurb title=”Castellana Caves (12 km)” image=”https:\/\/luxuryvillamariachiara.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/grotte-di-castellana.jpg” _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_font_size=”25px” body_font=”|300|||||||” body_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_enable_color=”off” text_orientation=”center” hover_enabled=”0″ border_radii_image__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” border_radii_image__hover=”on|20px|20px|20px|20px” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n The Castellana Caves<\/strong> extend for about 3 kilometers at an average depth of 70 meters.

The Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve<\/strong> is part of the worldwide network of Blue Parks<\/strong>. Each of them stands out for its commitment to protect the marine environment and the animal species that live there.
