From panoramic sea views overlooking Cala Porto, to hidden beaches away from the tourist trail, cyclists can tailor their adventure to match their speed and interests. Polignano a Mare is also famous as the birthplace of Italian singer Domenico Modugno and features dramatic sea caves that line the cliffs, creating photo-worthy moments around every bend.
