The Palude del Capitano is a protected natural area located in the Porto Selvaggio Park, in Salento. It is a spunnulata, or rather a collapsed sinkhole that houses a body of brackish water fed by underground springs and the sea. The swamp is not clearly visible from the provincial road, and to enter the protected area you travel along paths that are not very easy for racing bikes.
