Just outside the marina we come across the fantastic cave of the swallows. Fantastic because the entrance is impressive. According to one of the stories related to Polignano, the cave owes its name to a swallow that year after year used to build its nest in one of the many crevices of the vault of the cave overlooking the sea. Many years ago, one of those famous violent storms from the north, destroyed it by dragging the poor animal and its young into the waters.
Starts from contrada “Fratta” on the north-west edge of the town and ends at the sea in the cove called Paguro, characteristic for the typical architectural constructions spontaneous Mediterranean; still today it is used by fishermen as a landing place for fishing boats; the possibility of renting the pedal boats available in the adjacent cove (excavated at the beginning of the 1950s) is a summer attraction for tourists and locals, attracted by the opportunity to visit the changing shades of the caves that run under the coast of the historic city center.
From contrada “Pozzo Cavalieri”, passes through the S. Angelo district and, after passing through the town, flows into the suggestive Cala Monachile, an ancient commercial port during the Venetian domination at the end of the 15th century beginning of the 16th century which has now become the focal point of tourist and village life and above all the call of summer nights.
