22 Apr Lido Ottagono: a piece of heaven on the Apulian coast

Between the green of the secular olive trees and the blue of the Adriatic Sea, there is an orange beach that stands out: the beach of Lido Ottagono.

We are in Savelletri, a small village in Puglia, in southern Italy. This seaside resort is appreciated by tourists from all over Italy and from all over the world, attracted by a clear sea and a wonderful beach. The Lido Ottagono has been part of this amazing landscape for years, appearing to the eyes of visitors as an oasis in the Itria Valley.

Let’s discover together this piece of heaven on the Apulian coast.

The services of Lido Ottagono

Summer is coming and we are all looking forward to it, obviously. After all this hard work we deserve a little bit of rest and quiet. Lido Ottagono has everything you need.

This beach is equipped to welcome guests in the best possible way. The services provided by Lido Ottagono are designed to ensure maximum comfort and allow everyone to enjoy a perfect day at sea. The whole establishment is accessible to people with disabilities, who will be able to spend a pleasant and comfortable day at the beach thanks to the presence of wide walkways, suitable sun beds and dedicated showers.

Everything you can find in Lido Ottagono is designed for your relax and fun. On the beach there are multiple beach umbrellas well spaced between them and sunbeds larger than average, to provide guests with maximum comfort. The bathhouse has a large guarded parking lot where you can leave your car without worries. In addition, it provides boats for snorkeling and scuba diving lovers, as well as various water games such as jet skis. After a long day at sea nothing is better than washing the salt off your skin, which is why showers are included.

It may be an oasis among Apulian olive trees and the typical white houses of Savelletri, but Lido Ottagono manages to perfectly combine tradition and modernity. The beach provides free Wi-Fi and the possibility to reserve a spot on the beach via Cocobuk, the app to book your beach umbrella and sunbed on the beach.

A bridge over the sea

Sand or rocks? Take your pick! The beach of Lido Ottagono rises between two small rocky promontories, which over time have been eroded by the sea and the winds forming a sandy bay easily accessible by anyone.

The Lido Ottagono is characterized by large spaces divided into three main areas with different accesses to the sea: the central area is very large and comfortable, from here you can dive into the blue waters of Savelletri through a practical steel ladder. In this part of the beach there is the octagonal bar, open both for lunches and happy hours.

From here it is possible to reach the area beyond the bridge by walking between the two rocky promontories. This part of the beach is perfect for those seeking more peace without giving up the fun. In this part there is a trampoline for the best divers.

Between these two areas we find the beach, ideal for families with children who can easily access the sea under the watchful eyes of their parents.

Furthermore, Lido Ottagono is pet friendly. A special area of the beach resort is designed for our dogs and cats, that will receive a special treatment considering all their needs, even if they are not allowed to swim in the sea.

Lido Ottagono Bistrot: lunch with a sea view

Savelletri is known as the “home of sea urchins” but its seabed has much to offer to those who love the Mediterranean cuisine.

The Lido Ottagono offers a dining service that has nothing to envy to the best restaurants in Savelletri. The Bistrot has a varied menu, with typical Apulian zero kilometer dishes. You must taste the fresh fish dishes, made with the daily catch, and other traditional Apulian recipes such as friselle with cherry tomatoes from Torre Canne or seafood salads.

The desire for summer is only increasing and the opening of the bathing establishments is really close. If what you’re looking for is a magical place, with dreamy sunsets and lots of relaxation, Lido Ottagono is the perfect choice for you.
