Ciolo Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The name Ciolo derives from the Salento word "Giolo" or thieving magpie, this is because the area is rich in nests of this species. The beautiful cove is cut by the homonymous bridge which stands 40 meters high. Over the years the bridge has been a destination for intrepid divers but, given the danger, this practice has recently been banned. You can still enjoy the sea by accessing it from the cove below and, for those who do not want to give up a bit of adventure, dive from the surrounding rocks.

Canalone del Ciolo Trail

Highlight • Trail

This path is an ancient walkway that connects the town of Gagliano del Capo with the Ciolo bay, it enters a natural canyon dug by water and wind, where prehistoric caves open and you can admire the Mediterranean vegetation. It also offers a breathtaking view of the sea and the Ciolo bridge.
