About Puglia

Puglia, located in the southeastern region of Italy, is known for its stunning coastline, charming towns, and rich cultural heritage. The region is famous for its unique trulli houses, particularly in Alberobello, and its beautiful beaches along the Adriatic Sea. The currency used in Puglia is the Euro, which is widely accepted in shops, restaurants, and attractions. Visitors can enjoy a variety of local wines and olive oils, which are integral to Puglia's culinary scene. The region is also home to numerous historical sites, including ancient castles and Roman ruins, making it a perfect destination for history enthusiasts.

When to visit

The best time to visit Puglia is during the spring (April to June) and fall (September to October) when the weather is mild and pleasant. Summers can be hot, with temperatures often exceeding 30°C (86°F), making it ideal for beachgoers but less comfortable for sightseeing. In contrast, winter months can be chilly and rainy, which may limit outdoor activities. Spring brings blooming wildflowers and vibrant landscapes, while fall offers the grape harvest season, perfect for wine lovers. Overall, visiting during the shoulder seasons allows travelers to enjoy the region's beauty without the summer crowds.
