Legend has it that two sisters, two local farmers, one day approached the sea to cool off. Having reached the bay of Torre dell'Orso, one of the two enters the water to take a nice swim, but the water, near the rocks, has become treacherous and swirling. The girl gasps and screams for help: her sister can only rush to help her. They swim and swim, and the more they swim the more their efforts seem in vain. When they finally manage to get closer to each other, they are exhausted, without strength. They embrace for the last time, now unable to overcome the fury of the sea, which swallows them and drowns them. However, the god of the sea is sorry for this and has compassion for the two innocent sisters, one who died due to unconsciousness and the other due to brotherly love; thus it transforms them into two stacks, close together for eternity. And today we, on sunny summer mornings as well as on humid winter days, admire these rock giants, almost embracing, stone and salt between sky and sea

Le Cesine is a nature reserve covering an area of 348 hectares. It was built on part of former swampy and marshy freshwater areas stretching from Brindisi in the north to Otranto in the south. There are many plants growing in the reserve, located on the so-called red list, which includes rare and endangered species. The world of fauna is also impressive, with the spring magic of the flight of thousands of colorful butterflies (including Macroglossum stellatarum, which closely resembles a hummingbird!) and the singing of amphibians on late winter nights (the croaking of a small Hyla intermedia frog, about 4 cm long, can be heard even several kilometers away!) .

The oasis is protected by the WWF and covers over 350 hectares of marshes and wetlands. The type of habitat makes it an ideal place for many species of migratory water birds to stop. Other animals also reside, including reptiles and amphibians, and wolves and wild boars have recently been reintroduced.
