Former bauxite quarry where an emerald green lake has formed between red earth cliffs, 2 km from the center. Free access on foot from the Orte wood parking lot.

The lighthouse of Cape Otranto, on Italy's easternmost point, 5 km from the center. Reach it on foot via a path through olive groves. Dawn here is spectacular, and on clear days, Albania is visible. The interior is often closed: the site is best enjoyed from the outside.

Two lakes 7 km north of Otranto: Alimini Grande, connected to the sea, and Alimini Piccolo, fed by springs. Pine forest, walks on foot or by bike, and birds—just behind Alimini’s beaches.
