Looking for a bike trip to the sea? Then this route is perfect for you!

Starting early in the morning from Lecce, you’ll enjoy a pleasant ride through endless olive groves and vineyards until you reach Copertino, where you can admire the majestic castle, an extraordinary example of Renaissance architecture in Puglia.

From Copertino, you’ll hop back on the saddle heading toward the sea, specifically to Porto Cesareo, a famous summer holiday destination, known for its crystal-clear waters and breathtaking beaches. The best time to enjoy this tour is in May, June, or September, when you can escape the crowds and chaos of the peak summer months.

After a stop in Porto Cesareo, perhaps with a refreshing swim, it’s time to get moving again, riding back toward Lecce while making two worthwhile stops in Veglie and Carmiano, two charming villages that deserve a visit.

A ride filled with stunning landscapes, history, and the sea breeze! 🚴‍♂️🌊🏰☀️
