    Tips

    The Punta Palacia Lighthouse is the easternmost point of the Italian peninsula. It is not visible from the main road, you have to go around the military complex and look towards the sea. The path that descends to the lighthouse is steep and bumpy, it is advisable to tie the bicycle and go down on foot or simply enjoy the spectacular panorama from the benches at the beginning of the path. This is in fact the narrowest point of the Adriatic and on clear days the jagged Albanian coast can be seen clearly on the horizon.

      Stratospheric panorama, beautiful, on days you can glimpse Albania. This is the easternmost point of Italy
