Torre Colimena (Salina dei Monaci) is a seaside hamlet in the municipality of Manduria, not far from Torre Lapillo. It is a protected nature reserve and is a place not affected by mass tourism and for this reason its landscape is almost uncontaminated: a place rich in natural species, such as flamingos and various types of birds. A quiet place, far from crowded and noisy beaches, an oasis of peace. Once you arrive under the tower, turn left until you find the interrupted road, park and continue on foot.

The Chidro River is a stream that travels about 10 km underground, and then 500 meters from the Ionian Sea comes to the surface through a spring called a "crater", located within the Chidro River Mouth Nature Reserve. At the mouth, three lakes are created which offer a suggestive scenery and an unmissable tourist destination.

The Salina dei Monaci is a nature reserve located near Torre Colimena. It is a salt lagoon that hosts a rich biodiversity, especially of migratory birds such as pink flamingos. The salt pan owes its name to the Benedictine monks who managed it until 1404, and is separated from the sea by a sand dune and a channel dug into the rock. It is an ideal place for a day at the beach, bird watching and a nice walk.
