If winter feels too cold for travel, spring is the perfect time to explore Apulia. Perhaps this is where you might uncover your roots.

The mild climate and nature in full bloom make Apulia an ideal destination to visit between April and June, so you can fully enjoy its beauty. The region offers an extraordinary variety of landscapes and attractions. Among the must-see cities of art are Lecce, Bari, and Ostuni, while the renowned seaside locations include Polignano a Mare, Otranto, and Gallipoli. If the sea is your passion, Northern Apulia, with the Gargano promontory, Vieste, and Peschici, also offers the opportunity to visit the magnificent Tremiti Islands. If you are drawn to art, Central Apulia, with the Itria Valley and its charming villages such as Alberobello and Locorotondo, will also lead you to Bari, Trani, and Castel del Monte, eventually taking you to Matera. If you’re undecided, thinking of the aromas of fresh orecchiette, the Salento will captivate you with its breathtaking beaches, picturesque villages, and Baroque architecture in Lecce. In any case, a trip to Apulia will be a unique opportunity to rediscover the traditions and history that, perhaps, your grandparents told you about.
