Gallipoli is a coastal town on the Ionian Sea in the Apulia region of Italy. While not a major international dive hub, it serves as a gateway for local boat dives along the Salento coast. With a handful of dive centers nearby, divers can access shallow reefs, wreck sites, and artificial reefs within easy reach from shore or short boat trips. The area offers warm Mediterranean waters, clear visibility in good conditions, and abundant marine life typical of the southern Adriatic outline, making it suitable for recreational diving, courses, and day trips.
