The coast of Porto Cesareo is approximately 17 km long.

Before going on vacation, find out what to visit in Porto Cesareo: every morning, fresh fish is offered and sold on the pier of the Riviera di Ponente.
The caught fish is then put on sale in the traditional fishmongers in the historic center of the Salento city, where in the evening you can stroll along a characteristic street, where we find the shops where it is customary to haggle over the price of fresh fish to be cooked in the B&Bs or in the apartments for rent during your holidays in Porto Cesareo.
The beaches of Porto Cesareo are fringed by soft dunes of pure white sand , kissed by an ever-warm and shining sun.
A peculiarity of the place is fishing tourism, which is practiced through boats and fishing vessels, together with local fishermen who will teach you how to choose fresh fish, suitable to be cooked for dinner, perhaps with the same members of the crew.
