Grotta della Poesia

A natural limestone sinkhole filled with seawater, surrounded by archaeological ruins and Messapian inscriptions older than the Romans. You climb down rocks and jump in. The water is clear, deep, cold, and connected to the sea through underwater channels. Skip the adjacent paid pool — the free natural one is the point. Go early; it gets dangerous-crowded after 11 a.m.
