Introducing Puglia
This fabulous Italian region is located in the South, and its five main provinces form the heel of Italy’s boot protruding out into the Ionian Sea and with its Eastern coastline facing out into the Adriatic. Known for its sunny weather and beautiful hill towns which feature stunning white washed buildings and excellent food and drink, this is a fantastic region for those who love sun, sea and gastronomy all rolled into one. With miles and miles of white sandy beaches plus centuries-old farmland and lush green countryside, this natural gem of a region offers the best of both worlds.
