Sea & Nature
Part of the Rosa Marina Consortium, Ostuni a Mare is set amidst the vibrant Mediterranean scrubland, just a few kilometres from the famous “White City”. Its privileged location makes it easy to explore the natural wonders of Puglia, including the Castellana Caves, the Dune Costiere Regional Natural Park and the Torre Guaceto Marine Reserve.
Rosa Marina
Soft, pale sand and crystal-clear Adriatic waters. Ostuni a Mare overlooks the unspoilt coastline of Rosa Marina, nestled within the Dune Costiere Park. This coastal haven takes its name from a rare wild rose that blooms in the area – a symbol of the region’s rich biodiversity.
Just 300 metres from the resort, Il Pontile is a private, fully equipped beach offering peace and comfort. It can be reached on foot through a shaded path or by a small shuttle train.
Dune Costiere Natural Park (6 km away)
A landscape shaped by coastal dunes and home to unique ecosystems. The park stretches over 40,000 hectares and includes wetlands, coastal forests, lagoons and traditional farmland. Created in 2008, it’s a refuge for numerous species of birds, reptiles, and amphibians.
Marked trails make this protected area perfect for walking and cycling, offering a natural escape into one of Puglia’s most distinctive environments.
Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve (30 km away)
Managed by WWF and the FAI, Torre Guaceto covers over 1,200 hectares of pristine coastline. It’s a leading example of sustainable conservation, blending dunes, Mediterranean shrubland, marine habitats and a large coastal lagoon.
Overlooking it all is the 16th-century watchtower, symbol of a wild, protected stretch of coast. Ideal for nature lovers, the reserve offers hiking, snorkelling and educational paths for all ages.
