Cala Casotto is located in the municipality of Otranto in Baia delle Orte, in the province of Lecce. Not far from the Laghetto di Bauxite (Bauxite Pond) we find this characteristic cove surrounded by rocks that often change hue and range from limestone white to opaque black. All around is a riot of colours, from the green of the typical Mediterranean scrub to the blue of a fantastic sea and interrupted stretches of pine forest; this stretch of coastline conveys to the traveller all the wild and solitary aspect that characterises Cala Casotto. This corner of paradise is light years away from all the summer hustle and bustle of crowded beaches with loud music and a sea full of people. If you like the hustle and bustle and the comforts of a fully equipped lido, you can avoid visiting Cala Casotto. At Cala Casotto the hands of the clock have stopped in a time now lost where nature has taken over from man, modelling one of the most enchanting places the Salento has to offer to his liking. Now honeyed lines aside, which may certainly seem biased, this place must be experienced in all its complexity to fully savour the sensations it manages to convey. Don"t forget your rock shoes, after which, once you get to the little cove, all you have to do is find an inviting spot to spread your towel and enjoy a perfect tan; the sea becomes deep after just a few strokes and is very suitable for snorkelling so that you can discover these suggestive and luminous seabeds. Vibrant sensations and summer pleasure for our bodies Happy holidays from Cala Casotto.
