In realtà la spiaggia di Posto Rosso è una bellissima scogliera, con mare cristallino e colori fantastici, popolata da molti pesci, salpe a branchi, occhiate e saraghi e ricca di invertebrati. Accesso in acqua favorito da piattaforme in legno ben sistemate dagli enti locali. Ottima per un bagno refrigerante e per emozionarsi esplorando gli splendidi fondali.

Per gli amanti dello scoglio e per quanti fuggono dalla calca delle spiagge, questo tratto di mare presenta diverse opportunità che vanno dal semplice bagno, alla possibilità di fare tuffi da altezze fino anche a 6 metri e godersi il fondale ricco di flora e fauna.

Costa rigorosamente di scogliera non affollata ma utilizzata prevalentemente da chi ha la casa sul posto. Si possono trovare piccole calette con scogli piatti da cui riuscire a scendere in un mare meraviglioso. Così come zone in cui la scogliera è molto scomoda e impervia. A 7 minuti a piedi la baia dei diavoli, stupenda, da cui puoi scendere in una piscina naturale dai mille colori oppure tuffarti da circa 4/5 metri di altezza.

Non si può dire che c'è una spiaggia!! La costa è tutta rocciosa con piccoli inserti sabbiosi. È bella l'idea di fare una passeggiata ciclo pedonale a margine degli scogli.

Un altro angolo di paradiso del Salento, ambiente naturale con mare stupendo e scogliera e una bellissima passerella che la costeggia per alcuni chilometri, un posto ideale per rilassarsi e magari portare a passeggio il nostro amico a 4 zampe!
