Torre Pozzelle is one of the most beautiful coastal areas of the city of Ostuni (BR) in Puglia. This coastal stretch is characterized by a series of small sandy coves (five to be precise) interspersed with large stretches of rocks, lapped by the sea and surrounded by the Mediterranean scrub typical of coastal dunes. An ancient Aragonese tower built between 1565 and 1569 acts as a lookout over this uncontaminated landscape. The coastal tower has half collapsed and despite this it retains a notable charm. The naturalistic area of the coast of Torre Pozzelle contains a high biodiversity of plant and animal species. A place that, thanks to recent protection, can be admired in all its beauty. In addition to 5 enchanting sandy coves enclosed by low rocky cliffs, there is a rare forest of centuries-old juniper trees as well as a small wetland. Torre Pozzella can be reached from the E55 (SS379) that goes from Bari to Ostuni.

The natural oasis Torre Guaceto stands for beautiful sea and lots of nature. The landmark is this Aragonese tower Torre Guaceto

Torre Pozzelle is a coastal tower classifiable as typical of the Kingdom, whose origin dates back to the Orden General of Perafan De Ribera (1563) which in that period greatly increased the number of coastal towers in the area. In ancient cartography it took on various names including “Puzzelle”, “Puzzelli”, “Puzzeglie”, “Puzzella” and “de’ Pozzelli”.

This sanctuary stands where previously there was a farmhouse. Once the house was destroyed, only a wall remained standing with a painting portraying the effigy of the Madonna. The event was considered miraculous and the sanctuary was erected. The wall is placed behind the altar. Believer travelers returning to Brindisi from the highway thank the Madonna for having granted the journey and the return.

The rock church of San Biagio is located in a rock village built along the rocky walls of the depression created by the course of the Canale Reale. It is one of the main rock settlements in the region: an intact and well-preserved pictorial cycle adorns the church. A community of Italian-Byzantine monks settled here before the 12th century and used the caves which had probably already been used in previous times.
