Popular places to visit

The "hidden" beach of the well-known town of Polignano a Mare in the south of Italy. The old town was built just on top of the cliff: often they organize big diving competition where all participants jump in the water directly from the houses's roof....and it's not rare to see some people jumping from the windows! #BeachTips
