DAMA del Salento welcomes you just 600 metres from the Blue Flag beach of San Cataldo. A bright home for your holiday in the authentic heart of Salento.
Often underrated, San Cataldo is in fact one of the most convenient and authentic marinas in Salento: the sea of Lecce just 12 kilometres from the city centre, without the crowds of the busiest resorts.

Clear, crystalline water, white sand and gently shelving seabeds: perfect for children and for anyone seeking a safe, peaceful sea.
Natural shade along the coast and, just minutes away, the WWF oasis of Le Cesine: a protected wetland of migratory birds, dunes and Mediterranean scrub.
The lighthouse that has guided sailors since 1866 and the remains of the Roman port built by Emperor Hadrian: history and views along a well-kept seafront full of cafรฉs.
A welcoming holiday home in Via Ischia 3, with a terrace, garden and a large living room. Designed for those who want to enjoy Salento freely, with all the comforts of a real home.
