Experience recommended by SalentoBike
Horse riding by the Sant'Andrea sea stacks, Melendugno
An hour on horseback with the sea beside you and the sea stacks ahead.

What you do
Some places look different from the saddle. This horse ride takes you along the coast at Sant'Andrea, in Melendugno, with the sea stacks rising out of the water.
You go at the horse's pace, calmly. You hear the water, look at the rock and enjoy an hour at a different pace.
It runs all year round. In summer it is a change from the beach, and in autumn and winter it is a way to enjoy this coast when it is quieter.
By bike
An hour on horseback fits easily into a bike day along the coast. I prepare a self-guided route that passes through Sant'Andrea: you arrive, lock the bike with the lock that comes with it, get in the saddle and then ride on.
For this area you can pick up the bike in Lecce, San Foca or Calimera, always for free. Or you keep the ride for a day off the bike.
