Polignano a Mare is located in the Province of Bari, also known as the “Pearl of the Adriatic”.
White, like many towns in Puglia and the Mediterranean, it is perched on a cliff and overlooks the sea with spectacular views. The cliff opens onto the beach, creating a paradisiacal bay and seen from above, the shades of the water will enchant you.
Like many cities on the coast, Polignano also has a historic centre of Medieval origin which stands on a cliff overlooking the sea. Its coast, on the other hand, is characterised by a high and jagged coast which houses numerous sea caves.
Birthplace to the singer Domenico Modugno, who became famous with his song “Volare”. Polignano is rich with historic centres full of Arab, Byzantine, Spanish and Norman traces. Here the remains of the four defence towers which surrounded the ancient part of the town are still evident.
Polignano a Mare is one of the most sought after seaside resorts in the region due to its beautiful beaches and sea, which can boast the title of the Blue Flag. The city is full of coves and inlets surrounded by high cliffs which host small, sandy beaches and rocks.
Choosing Polignano a Mare means spending a holiday mainly by the sea, but not only. In fact, those who want to combine excursions and cultural walks with life on the beach will not be disappointed. Instead, to whet the appetite, there is no shortage of trattorias, restaurants and fanciful places to enjoy the flavours of Puglia in an enchanting setting.
