Mediterranean scrub dominates the environment, and among the high dunes and freshwater springs can be found many animal and plant species. It is home to many birds such as the marsh harrier, kingfisher and red heron; you could also find reptiles and amphibians.

The protected area of Torre Guaceto is part of the WWF oases and in 2019 received a prestigious worldwide recognition becoming part of the Blue Parks. In this unique ecosystem, shrubs, herbaceous plants and trees such as juniper, myrtle and holm oak grow.

A symbol of the reserve, the Aragonese Tower dominates the sand dunes and the sea of Brindisi. Built during the 16th century under the reign of Charles V, with its 16 metres it is the highest of the towers in Terra d’Otranto. It is now home to a museum where visitors can admire an artistic representation of a Roman ship made by one of most famous Italian shipwrights.
