The seafront is known for its lovely villas, elegant buildings and the Lungomare Cristoforo Colombo shopping street. In addition to being the home of Europe’s tallest lighthouse, the town is also at the end of the Apulian aqueduct, whose waters cascade down an elaborate waterfall (20 minutes) set in a lush park.
