A protected coastal wetland framed by dunes and Mediterranean vegetation. It is especially atmospheric in the quieter hours, with birdlife changing through the seasons.
COASTAL LANDSCAPE
Torre Colimena
A relaxed stretch of coast where a historic watchtower, sandy beach and the nearby salt marsh create a landscape worth exploring slowly.
BEACH & VILLAGE
Campomarino
Turquoise water, sandy coves and a small seaside village make Campomarino an easy choice for an afternoon by the sea followed by an evening walk.
DAY BY THE SEA
Porto Cesareo
