Capilungo is a seaside resort in the province of Lecce and hamlet of the Municipality of Alliste, which is about 4 km away. It is located between Posto Rosso and Torre Suda, by the Ionian Sea. The town has grown, especially in recent years. The status of hamlet dates back to 1964, when the President of the Republic Giovanni Gronchi awarded it at the request of some citizens of Alliste living here. The coast is easily feasible with a low cliff and dotted with numerous inlets.
