Torre dell’Orso is a seaside resort in Salento’s Marina di Melendugno, in the province of Lecce. Known for the extensive beach of fine silver sand, Torre dell’Orso boasts a particularly clear sea due to the currents of the Strait of Otranto.
Thanks to this characteristic, this location is enlivened by many tourists during the summer and is a frequent recipient of the European Blue Flag award for the transparency and cleanliness of the sea.
