The tower in the sea and the long Ionian beach

The locality takes its name from the 16th-century coastal watchtower, now largely ruined and surrounded by the sea only a few metres from the beach.

The beach, the 16th-century tower and the landscape of this seaside resort of Salve.

The beach of Torre Pali

The regional source describes a long stretch of very fine sand, with equipped beach clubs alternating with free public beach.

As far as the tower the coast is low and sandy; heading north it becomes rocky around Isola della Fanciulla.

The tower in the sea

The coastal tower was built in the 16th century as a lookout against attacks from the sea.

Today it is largely ruined and stands on a small islet a few metres from shore, making it the symbol of the locality.

Isola della Fanciulla and the harbour

Isola della Fanciulla is a low rectangular rock that emerges just above the surface of the water.

Beside the built-up area there is also a small tourist harbour with essential services for boats and local sailing.
