The Property — B&B La Nassa
La Nassa is a modest, family-run three-star in the historic centre, a short walk from Brindisi’s waterfront. The lobby is unpretentious—tiled floors, a small reception desk and a cluster of armchairs—with the feel of a well-kept guesthouse rather than a hotel. Its USP is location: you’re steps from the Roman columns that mark the end of the Appian Way, and the ferry port for Greece is a five-minute walk. It suits independent travellers or couples who want a clean, quiet base without frills, not a resort crowd.
Chronicles of Brindisi
Brindisi was a key Messapian settlement before becoming a Roman colony in the 3rd century BC, and the Romans made it the terminus of the Via Appia, their main road to the east. The city’s two ancient columns, one still standing, once marked the end of that road and became a symbol of the port’s importance. Under the Normans and later the Angevins, the cathedral and the Swabian castle were built, giving the old town its medieval layer. Today Brindisi is a working ferry and industrial port, but its compact centro storico retains a relaxed, sun-bleached character with narrow lanes and fishing boats bobbing in the inner canal.
Best Time to Visit
Full Brindisi guide →Best months
May and June are ideal: temperatures are warm but not oppressive (22–28°C), crowds are thin before the peak season, and the summer cultural programme hasn’t yet overwhelmed the town. September is also excellent, with sea temperatures still pleasant and fewer tourists.
Peak / festival surge
August is the busiest month—Italian holidaymakers pack the ferries to Greece and the regional beaches. Hotel prices can rise 20–30% above June rates. The main draw is the Ferragosto festival (15 August), when many shops close and locals celebrate with beach barbecues and evening processions.
Budget shoulder season
April and early July are the best budget shoulder months. April offers mild weather (15–20°C) and lower rates; early July is still before the August rush, with decent prices and manageable heat.
Weather & packing
Brindisi’s climate is Mediterranean with a drying north wind (the Bora) that can drop the temperature sharply in an evening. Pack layers: light linen or cotton for the day, and a windproof jacket or shawl for the breezy harbour walks after sunset.
Live City Briefing — Brindisi
- The new pedestrian zone in the historic centre (Piazza della Vittoria to Via dei Mille) is in effect from June to September, restricting vehicle access on evenings and weekends—good for walking but means taxis drop you at the perimeter.
- The ferry terminal has added a second daily departure to Corfu for summer 2026, which may increase foot traffic around the port but also makes day-trip logistics easier.
- The annual ‘Brindisi all’Imbrunire’ cultural evenings start in late June, with free concerts and guided tours in the old town—check the municipality’s events page for schedules.

Top Attractions in Brindisi
💡 Visit at golden hour for the best light on the carvings. The pedestal has reliefs of Roman gods and sea monsters often missed in a quick glance.
💡 Go at sunset when the light hits the marble nicely. The smaller column opposite is a medieval copy – skip it.
💡 Go at sunset when the light hits the column and the waterfront. It's on a busy roundabout so watch the traffic crossing for photos.
💡 Visit at sunset for a great view over the harbour. The pavement around the base can be uneven; watch your step.
💡 First Sunday of the month is free for everyone. On weekdays it's already free, so check their Facebook for any temporary closures.
💡 Bring binoculars to spot birds on the salt marshes at the far end. There’s a public tap with drinkable water halfway along.
💡 Start at the Roman Column and walk south to the Aragonese Castle for a solid 20-minute stroll with changing views.
💡 Visit in late afternoon for good light on the carvings; the other column is in Lecce.
