I wanted to love this location. Whilst the setting is beautiful, there’s very little I can say in favour of it. I hate to imagine how the beaches appear outside of the “marine protection areas”. The amount of garbage was disappointing, disgusting, sad, depressing and left a feeling of such helplessness. At one end of the beach was the well kept “paid section”, looked lovely... the remainder of the beach “public section” you could easily fill a garbage truck at least once over. I would be interested in learning more about what conservation policies exist in Italy for Marine/Parklands.

Magnificent natural place with nobody in June…

Interesting natural reserve with lots of animals, like birds and snakes.

This is a fine example of a conservation area and yet very accessible to the public . A shuttle bus service is provided from the main parking area. There are different zones of protection , no fishing , sailing and water sport areas and swimming is not encouraged in some areas . The areas are clearly designated and the public seem to be cooperating. There is a turtle hospital not open to the public due to stress that this would cause the animals. There are long scenic , tranquil paths to walk but beware of the erosions and danger in some of the cliff tops. The beaches and bays are a haven for wildlife and the public alike this place deserves more publicity but maybe its better left to the public to discover how wonderful it is?

Sorry but calling Torre Guaceto a natural reserve is a joke... The beach is dirty, with microplastics and other waste, and due to the shallow water the dirt remains in the water almost up to the buoys. Beach is overcrowded in August as could be expected, yet it has only two toilets and not even a shower. Booking online or not makes no difference: the parking is huge and accepts anyone who pays the 5€ at the entrance, and then everyone queues up for the shuttle. But the small „train“ doesn’t bring you to the beach, instead it drops you off some 700m away... and even in peak periods there is only one "train". Queues under the scorching sun are very long for both journeys (wait at least 20 minutes). The sea is ok, but neither better nor worse than the other coves along the coast. Don‘t waste your time & money here!

- It's a wonderful place for a good walk along the seaside, the sea is simply amazing, only downside the rubbish coming from the sea get stuck on the beaches and doesn't get removed because "it's a reserve". - Posto fantastico per una giornata di mare immersi nella selvaggia macchia mediterranea, è un peccato però che i rifiuti portati dalle mareggiate non vengano rimossi

Just beautiful, a bit of everything white beachside, grotto's, ruins. Love that so much of this area from Bari on down the coast isn't the over devolved beaches of Spain and France.

Its very quite and Lovely place

Not really worth it. They charge you €3 per ticket. Don't expect views from up on a tower, you are only allowed on the first floor. Barely any historical items are in display. See photo's.

Rather disappointed. Not much to see inside. Beautiful building though. Entrance fee is 5 euro each adult and child age 6

Nice castello in the heart of the historical centre of Carovigno, beautiful entrance, loads of historical information about the Castelo. Free visit and helpful staff.

A nice cool visit on a hot day, worthwhile.

A Stunning and Wonderful place to shoot wedding photography by FINNimaje

I must say from the start I haven't been in the castle as it was closed when we visited. It is a fine example of town defences an very nicely preserved . It takes a roughly triangular form ( wedge shaped) the main gate way is particularly attractive. We liked the small streets surrounding the Castello , close to the town centre and the tourist information office easy walking even for the less able.

Evening visit to listen to some jazz; really nice. Have promised myself to visit the castle during the day; it's really worth a visit. It's in great shape.

Great place to be. Perfect service and nice to be, the owners family gave is a pefect holiday. No question was to much, always willing to help and trying to do something special. The food is so pure from breakfast to diner fresh and every day a surprise.

Cibo delizioso e abbondante preparato con ingredienti tipici e a km0. Locale caratteristico molto bello! Amazing food, healthy and fresh! Vegetables and meat served in the restaurant, are grown in the same property ... True km0 phylosophy. The friendly personnel and an authentic location, complete the perfect equation.

Very good lunch here. Get the mixed grill. Call to make sure they are open.

Good meat

(Translated by Google) Easter Monday 2024 and full restaurant in all corners. The impression is that they accepted more reservations due to the capacity of the kitchen, so incredible expectations for the first courses and the mixed roast dishes that represented the second courses. Applause to the staff who worked with great kindness and promptness and partially solved the inconvenience. High price, justified only by demand on public holidays. (Original) Pasquetta 2024 e ristorante pieno in tutti gli angoli. L’impressione è che abbiano accettato più prenotazioni per la capacita della cucina, per cui attese incredibili per i primi e i piatti di arrosto misto che hanno rappresentato i secondi. Un plauso al personale che si è prodigato con grande gentilezza e prontezza e ha in parte ovviato l’inconveniente. Prezzo alto, giustificato solo dalla domanda nella giornata festiva.

(Translated by Google) We celebrated my mother's birthday with the whole family. Welcoming environment, less welcoming owners, very cold towards us! And then even if prices increased everywhere, they were still not in line with the menu they offered us. Furthermore, there was little choice of first and second courses and appetizers which were not that varied and in any case not quantitatively adequate for the amount charged: out of 13 people we would have had to pay half, given the quantities. Oh well, it happens once but not twice! (Original) Abbiamo festeggiato il compleanno di mia madre con tutta la famiglia. Ambiente accogliente, meno accoglienti i proprietari, molto freddi nei nostri confronti! E poi anche se i prezzi sono aumentati dappertutto, non erano comunque in linea con il menù che ci hanno proposto. Peraltro poca scelta di primi e secondi piatti e antipasti che non erano poi così vari e comunque non adeguati quantitativamente, a quanto fatti pagare: su 13 persone ne avremmo dovuti pagare la metà, viste le quantità. Vabbe', ci si capita una volta ma due no!

(Translated by Google) Last night we had a dinner with old Salsa friends. We were 23 people and had good appetizers (normal portion), 5/6 sliced ​​meats and 4/5 mixed roast dishes at the center of the table. Dessert, wine (house) and water (not bottled). 40 euros each. Definitely overpriced. I don't think you'll see us again. (Original) Ieri sera abbiamo fatto una cena tra vecchi amici salseri. Eravamo 23 persone abbiamo preso degli antipasti (dose normale) buoni, 5/6 tagliate e un 4/5 piatti di arrosti misto al centro tavola. Dolce, vino (della casa) e acqua (non in bottiglia). 40 euro a testa. Decisamente troppo caro. Non credo che ci rivedrete più.

(Translated by Google) Clean beach and the sea is also fantastic, but I advise you not to set foot in this beach if you don't want to ruin your day!!! Completely rude and unpleasant staff! Just the "We love" shirts are not enough our clients" but you have to prove it. They don't know how to approach people, it seems like they have recently opened up their ways of doing things. They say that their lido is always full, perhaps because it was the only one until this summer. (Original) Spiggia pulita e anche il mare è fantastico, ma vi consiglio di non mettere piede in questo lido se non volete rovinarvi la giornata!!! Personale del tutto scortese e antipatico! Non bastano solo le maglie "We love our clients" ma bisogna dimostrarlo. Non sanno approcciare con le persone, sembra che abbiano aperto da poco per i modi di fare. Dicono che il loro lido è sempre pieno forse perché era l'unico fino a quest'estate.

(Translated by Google) €43 for umbrella, parking and the famous spot on the beach. Umbrellas very close together. Baby changing area dirty and without any washing area. Showers that stopped constantly. Courteous staff. Good food at the right price. I won't go back. (Original) 43€ per ombrellone, parcheggio e il famoso posto in spiaggia. Ombrelloni molto vicini tra loro. Area per cambio neonati sporca e senza alcuna zona per lavaggio. Docce che si bloccavano di continuo. Staff cortese. Cibo buono al giusto prezzo. Non ci tornerò.

(Translated by Google) Half day with umbrella and 2 sunbeds 21 euros, in which there is the cost of entry. But what is this "entrance" if I already got an umbrella and sunbeds?! Nobody knows, we just know that they are euros. They make a mistake twice in giving us the change, keeping a total of 11 euros, evidently mathematics is not their strong point, or perhaps strong they are, but in trying to cheat people. Two skinny sandwiches for the modest sum of 10 euros, where between 1 slice of mozzarella and half a tomato there is no salt, much less oil. I take a dip in the sea, go out, take a cold shower... you have to pay for that too! With cold water! At 7pm we were kicked out due to the closure of the establishment, the best hours to be on the beach. I was amazed that they didn't make me pay for the exit as well as the entrance fee. And not even the increased air breathed. This is why I give 1 star, otherwise they would have been 0. (Original) Mezza giornata con ombrellone e 2 lettini 21 euro, nei quali c'è il costo dell'ingresso. Ma che cos'è questo "ingresso" se già ho preso ombrellone e lettini?! Nessuno lo sa, sappiamo solo che sono euro. Sbagliano 2 volte a darci il resto, trattenendosi in totale 11 euro, evidentemente la matematica non è il loro forte, o forse forti lo sono, ma a tentare di fregare la gente. Due panini scarni alla modica cifra di 10 euro, dove tra 1 fetta di mozzarella e mezzo pomodoro non c'è sale, tantomeno olio. Faccio un bagno in mare, esco, vado a farmi una doccia fredda..è a pagamento pure quella! Con acqua fredda! Alle 19 veniamo sbattuti fuori per la chiusura dello stabilimento, le ore più belle per stare in spiaggia. Son rimasto stupito che non mi abbiano fatto pagare, oltre l'ingresso, anche l'uscita. E nemmeno la maggiorazione aria respirata. Per questo dò 1 stella, altrimenti sarebbero state 0.

(Translated by Google) They say the Romagna Riviera is expensive, but here it's even worse: €. 17.5 to access the semi-covered parking (3 people + car), otherwise you can also leave it outside. Then sunbed and umbrellas 31 euros but with zero courtesy and courtesy from the staff. Go to the toilet of the establishment/bar, there is no toilet paper, point out, they give it to you without worrying about going to replenish where it is missing. It's only 10 in the morning. I don't want to think about arriving in the evening. On the beach, sunbeds dirty with sand, I think they have never been cleaned since the season started Only sea water is worth it. For this reason 2 average saddles of everything. 5 for the sea and 0 for the staff. First and last time. Yet so little is enough to be almost perfect. (Original) Dicono che è cara la riviera romagnola, ma qui anche peggio: €. 17.5 per accedere al parcheggio semi coperto (3 pers+auto), sennò puoi lasciarla anche fuori. Poi lettino e ombrelloni 31 euro ma con zero garbo e cortesia da parte del personale. Vai in wc dello stabilimento/bar manca carta igienica, fatto presente, te la danno in mano senza preoccuparsi di andare loro a rifornire dove manca. Siamo solo alle 10 del mattino. Arrivare a sera non ci voglio pensare. In spiaggia lettini sporchi di sabbia, penso non siano mai stati puliti da quando iniziata la stagione Solo l'acqua del mare merita. Per questo 2 selle media di tutto. 5 per il mare e 0 per il personale. Prima e ultima volta. Eppure basta così poco per essere quasi perfetti.

(Translated by Google) Pros: beautiful sea Defects: most of the staff (in particular the older, black-haired lady who manages it and some girls at the bar) are extremely unpleasant, rude and treat customers badly (as well as staff of non-EU origin). Examples: if you say good morning and thank you they never reply, they look at you badly, you can see that they just want you to go away (in particular, the lady who manages it one evening, at 6.35pm, despite the fact that the lido closes at 7pm - and that I paid to stay until this time - she said to us « but what are you doing? Do you have to leave? » and to my « ah I thought you were open until 7pm », she started talking to other ladies saying out loud « but Who are these? Tomorrow we won't let them in anymore. They want to stay until 7pm, but who do they think they are ») and in general they respond badly to everyone. Furthermore, on the terrace of the lido there are signs that clearly indicate « tables reserved for quick consumption », one cannot even eat in peace! Again, the food is very expensive (€8 for a plate of literally 3 slices of courgettes, 3 of aubergines and 4 of peppers) or €4 for a slice of watermelon. It's a shame because it has a lot of potential. Conclusion: go to the beach next door, same sea and much more welcoming staff. (Original) Pregi: mare bello Difetti: gran parte del personale (in particolare la signora con i capelli neri e più avanti con l’età che lo dirige e alcune ragazze al bar) é estremamente sgradevole, maleducato e tratta male il cliente (nonché il personale di origine extracomunitaria). Esempi: se dici buongiorno e grazie non rispondono mai, guardano male, si vede che hanno solo voglia che tu vada via (in particolare, la signora che gestisce una sera, alle 18h35, malgrado il fatto che il lido chiuda alle 19 - e che io abbia pagato per restare fino a quest’ora - ci ha detto « ma che fate? Dovete andarvene? » e al mio « ah pensavo foste aperti fino alle 19 », si é messa a parlare con altre signore dicendo ad alta voce « ma questi chi sono? Domani non li facciamo più entrare. Fino alle 19 vogliono stare, ma chi si credono ») e in generale rispondono male a tutti. Inoltre, sulla terrazza del lido ci sono cartelli che indicano ben chiaro « tavoli riservati ad una rapida consumazione », uno non può nemmeno mangiare in santa pace! Ancora, il cibo é molto caro (8€ per un piatto di letteralmente 3 fette di zucchine, 3 di melanzana e 4 di peperone) o 4€ una fetta di anguria. Peccato perché ha un gran potenziale. Conclusione: andate al lido di fianco, stesso mare e personale molto più accogliente.

(Translated by Google) Without a doubt the worst place you could stay in, very rude and arrogant staff, dirty bathrooms (there was even no toilet paper in the women's one and it was brought in after more than half an hour with a unique listlessness). We were invited there, otherwise we would never have gone and certainly will never set foot there again. Scandalous is an understatement. Edit: after the response you are even more scandalous, you have the arrogance to say "always fully booked" (not true among other things since half the beach was empty). What are the rules? Not cleaning toilets and responding without courtesy to a 70 year old lady who is buying an ice cream cone? Shame on you, the reviews reflect how disgusting you are. (Original) Senza dubbio il posto peggiore in cui si possa stare, personale maleducatissimo ed arrogante, bagni sporchi (mancava perfino la carta igienica in quello delle donne ed è stata portata dopo più di mezz'ora con una svogliatezza unica). Siamo stati invitati lì, altrimenti non ci saremmo mai andati e sicuramente non ci metteremo più piede. Scandalosi è dire poco. Edit: dopo la risposta siete ancora più scandalosi, avete la spocchia di dire "sempre al completo" (non vero tra l'altro visto che mezzo lido era vuoto). Le regole quali sono? Non lavare i bagni e rispondere senza cortesia ad una signora di 70 anni che sta acquistando un cono gelato? Vergognatevi, le recensioni rispecchiano lo schifo che siete.

(Translated by Google) Courteous staff, ok service, clean and quiet beach. Prices more than fair. Exquisite pizza for lunch (excellent dough) deserves to be tasted, the "rice, potatoes and mussels" dish is delicious, let Katrin recommend the dish of the day. Recommended place (Original) Personale cortese, service ok,spiaggia pulita e tranquilla. Prezzi più che onesti. Pizza a pranzo squisita (ottimo impasto) merita di essere assaggiata, il piatto "riso patate e cozze" è buonissimo, fatevi consigliare da Katrin il piatto del giorno. Posto consigliato

Excellent beach set up with prices comparable to nearby lidos. Decent restaurant menu not massive but food good quality.

Fantastic service, quiet, great food, reasonably priced and parking. Wish the we found this place sooner

Loved it here family friendly beach with loungers and parasols drinks and bar snax served throughout the day.

it is an original and genuine place where you can feel good, have fun and relax in the real authentic Puglia

What an absolute off season hidden gem. Restaurant level lunch and a delightful small and exclusive feeling beach.

Food and cocktails are fabulous Staff are so helpful and polite, it has been a pleasure. Thank you so much!

A relaxing treat at the end of a busy day. The staff are so friendly and accommodating. Ciao!

Friendly staff***** Chill vibes Best food🍝 One of the best at Puglia!!!!!

Bellissima gente amichevole e socievole con una predisposizione naturale all'accoglienza. Spending good time there with lovable people. Very nice place in which I'sure you all can have good vibes.

We chanced upon this absolute gem of a beach bar and cannot believe our luck. They do the best cocktails in Puglia and their bar team are hugely knowledgeable and accommodating. Absolutely unmissable

Nice view but really bad quality of food (during lunch time)

The best cocktails in Puglia - they know their stuff and such a wonderful team. We love it and will be back soon! Xx

Amazing view, delicious own grown food and lovely staff that are very friendly. Better than the other beaches around! Bellissimo!

Relax

Very nice spot!

Relax and good food! Recommended

(Translated by Google) Alongside the Civil Tower, it was part of the defense system of the medieval village. It consists of two consecutive stone arches: an inner one, from the Angevin period, with a pointed arch and crowned with corbels; the other is round-headed, built in the Renaissance period of the Loffredo family. On this two coats of arms are visible, on the left that of the Loffredo family, on the right that of the University of Carovigno. (Original) Affiancata alla Torre Civile, faceva parte del sistema di difesa del borgo medioevale.

(Translated by Google) Small church at the entrance to the castle, and pertaining to the Castle, it was originally under the patronage of the feudal lords of Carovigno, the Imperiali and the Dentice. The Imperials granted the use of this sacred place to the Confraternity of the Most Holy Sacrament of which it is still the headquarters. Originally with a single nave, it is now enriched by two side naves. After various interventions that took place throughout the nineteenth century, the idea of ​​adapting the Church of S. Anna to the new architectural structure of the castle was reached. In 1911 the architect Marschietzech began the "In style" restoration, which ended in 1931. (Original) Chiesetta all'ingresso del castello, e di pertinenza del Castello, in origine fu di patronato dei feudatori di Carovigno, gli Imperiali e i Dentice. Gli Imperiali concessero l'uso di questo luogo sacro alla Confraternita del SS.mo Sacramento di cui è tuttora sede. Originariamente a navata unica, si presenta oggi arricchita da due navatelle laterali. Dopo vari interventi succedutisi durante tutto l'ottocento si giunse all'idea di adeguare la Chiesa di S. Anna al nuovo assetto architettonico del castello. Nel 1911 l'architetto Marschietzech diede avvio al restauro "In stile", conclusosi nel 1931.

(Translated by Google) Small, simple church not far from the castle and a stone's throw from the cathedral. (Original) Petite église simple non loin du château et à deux pas de la cathédrale.

(Translated by Google) Built between the end of the 1600s and the beginning of the 18th century, it is presumed to have belonged, like the nearby castle, to the noble Neapolitan feudal lord Michele Imperiali, whose coat of arms stands out in the frontal of the main altar. The use was granted to the Confraternity of the SS. Sacramento, also recognized by the King of Naples Ferdinand IV. In the early 1800s the new owners, the Neapolitans Dentice di Frasso, decided to expand the church by building the large chapel and, subsequently, the left nave; therefore in 1864 the right nave was completed. Finally, between 1887 and 1913 further modifications were carried out, such as moving the bell tower behind the dome and remaking the portal and rose window, and restoring the vaults and dome. The floor was made of mosaic concrete, like that of the castle. The appearance of today's facade is suggestive, inspired by the Lecce Romanesque style (Original) Edificata tra fine '600 ed inizio '700, si presume appartenesse, come il vicino castello, al nobile feudatario napoletano Michele Imperiali, il cui stemma spicca nel paliotto dell' altare maggiore. L' utilizzo fu concesso alla Confraternita del SS. Sacramento, riconosciuto anche dal re di Napoli Ferdinando IV. Nei primi anni del 1800 i nuovi proprietari, i napoletani Dentice di Frasso, decisero di ampliare la chiesa costruendo il cappellone e, successivamente, la navata sinistra; quindi nel 1864 fu completata la navata destra. Infine, tra il 1887 ed il 1913 furono eseguiti ulteriori interventi di modifica, quali lo spostamento del campanile a vela posteriormente alla cupola ed il rifacimento del portale e del rosone, e di restauro delle volte e della cupola. Il pavimento fu realizzato in cemento a mosaico, come quello del castello. Suggestivo l' aspetto dell' odierna facciata, ispirata allo stile romanico leccese

(Translated by Google) I already knew it through Instagram but I had never been there. I have to say that unfortunately I was a little disappointed: we stopped here for an aperitif and the place was practically empty. Despite this, they made us wait a long time both to place the order and to serve us... The cocktail proposal includes, in addition to the great classics, some interesting alternatives that I willingly tasted and, I must say, also appreciated. The negative note: they didn't even bring us an olive, nor a chip or even a peanut! For us, a group of friends born and raised between Milan and Brianza, it was a shock (because). 😅 (Original) Lo conoscevo già attraverso Instagram ma non ci ero mai stata. Devo dire che purtroppo sono rimasta un po' delusa: ci siamo fermati qui per un aperitivo e il locale era praticamente vuoto. Nonostante questo, ci hanno fatto attendere molto sia per effettuare l'ordine che per servirci... La proposta dei cocktail prevede, oltre ai grandi classici, delle alternative interessanti che io ho assaggiato volentieri e, devo dire, anche apprezzato. La nota negativa: non ci hanno portato neanche un’oliva, né una patatina e neppure una nocciolina! Per noi, gruppo di amici nato e cresciuto tra Milano e la Brianza, è stato uno shock (because). 😅
