Hotels Marina di Ginosa, Guesthouses Marina di Ginosa and Residences Marina di Ginosa

A thriving seaside resort situated in the province of Taranto, Marina di Ginosa is renowned all over the world for its compelling sea, 7 kilometre-long well-equipped golden beach and high-quality tourist services and facilities. Tourists are also attracted by its lush vegetation and the pinewood forest of Aleppo pines which surrounds Lake Salinella, situated three kilometres far from the city centre. These features make Marina di Ginosa an appreciated holiday destination for families, the lovers of nature and those looking for relaxing open-air holidays.

The small and intimate seaside resort of Marina di Ginosa was designed in the ’20s as a proper landing place for fishing boats, but tourism soon stood out as the key to its success. Modern and well-equipped 3-star guesthouses and elegant 4-star hotels are situated a short distance from the beach, while cheap inns and budget hotels give tourists the possibility to enjoy comfortable accommodation a short distance from the main highlights of the city centre.

A traditional tourist mecca for the lovers of nature and birdwatching, the area which gathers Lake Salinella and the surrounding wood allowed Marina di Ginosa to be included in the Protected Oasis of Apulia, which is characterized by charming wet habitats populated by aquatic birds, ducks, herons, birds of prey and wading birds.
During summer, some rare species of birds, such as Kentish Plovers, lay their eggs in the beaches of Marina di Ginosa. Their sandy dunes hide well-preserved remains of the ancient towers commissioned by Charles V in the XVI century. Torre Mattoni, the most important tower of the surrounding area, is named after its peculiar external brick walls. It is situated 300 metres above sea level, on the top of a sandy dune carpeted with lush climbing plants, trees and green bushes which boasts breathtaking views over the underlying landscape.
