Explore Gargano

Vieste and the Gargano, from our hill

White cliffs, clear water, forest and olive groves. Here’s what guests love around Vieste, and what we’re happy to help you plan.

Vieste

The old town on its cliff

Vieste’s old town sits high on a limestone cliff above the sea, a tangle of whitewashed lanes, steps and arches. Wander it in the late afternoon, then stay for dinner as the lights come on.

Coast and park

Beaches, bays and sea caves

The coast around Vieste is a run of sandy beaches and small bays under white cliffs, with sea caves you can visit from the water. Inland, the Gargano National Park covers forest, hills and quiet trails.

Ask us which beach suits the day: some are big and lively, others small and sheltered.

Outdoors

On the water and on the trails

Guests come for stand-up paddleboarding, surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing, canoeing and snorkelling along the coast, and mountain biking inland. Tell us what you’d like to try and we’ll point you to people who can take you.

Olive oil and local life

A land of olive groves

Olive groves cover the hills of the Gargano, and the harvest is one of the big moments of the year. Ask us about local oil and where to taste it.

Through the year, towns and villages around Vieste celebrate their patron saints with processions, music and food. We’ll tell you what’s on during your stay.

Day trips

The Tremiti Islands lie off the coast, and the villages of Peschici, Vico del Gargano and Monte Sant’Angelo are within reach. Ask us about the best way to get there during your dates.

Make Casa Angelina your base
