Looking for a beach of pale sand with shallow, clear water, but a little more secluded than the best-known resorts? This guide takes you to Posto Vecchio, Salve\u2019s Marina di Posto Vecchio, on the Ionian coast of southern Salento: the beach between Pescoluse and Torre Vado, swimming in the Maldives of Salento, walks along the shore to the tower of Torre Vado and everything there is to see nearby, with practical tips and local curiosities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In short<\/h2>

Posto Vecchio, or Marina di Posto Vecchio, is a small seaside village of Salve (Lecce) on the Ionian coast of southern Salento, between Pescoluse and Torre Vado, about 10 km from Santa Maria di Leuca. It has a beach of pale, fine sand, most of it free public beach, with low dunes behind it and a shallow, clear sea that also suits children. It is part of the stretch of coast known as the Maldives of Salento and in 2026 it has the Blue Flag. The best months are June and September.<\/p><\/blockquote>

What is Posto Vecchio?<\/h2>

Posto Vecchio is a seaside hamlet of Salve, on Salento\u2019s Ionian coast, at the eastern end of the long sandy shoreline that runs from Torre Pali through Pescoluse. It is a small village of little villas and holiday homes looking out to sea, which to the east runs without a break into Torre Vado, already in the municipality of Morciano di Leuca. It is the most secluded part of the Maldives of Salento, with fewer facilities and plenty of free beach.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Posto Vecchio is made up of low villas, little streets running down to the sea and a beach that seems never to end: to the west it carries on as far as Pescoluse, to the east it reaches the first low rocks of Torre Vado. It is a place of holiday homes that comes alive mainly in summer and falls silent again out of season.<\/p>

Here you reach the sea by walking across the sand: the water stays shallow for tens of metres, it is clear and it changes colour from turquoise to deep blue. It is the Salento of slow days on the beach, of walks along the shore and of sunsets over the sea. In this guide you will find how to get there, where to swim, what to see and how to plan your day, nearby too.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
