The Santuario di Santa Maria de Finibus Terrae is a stone church dating back to the 18th century, built on the site of an ancient temple overlooking the town and harbor. It stands alongside the famous 157-foot-tall lighthouse and offers stunning views of Marina di Leuca, with its charming coast dotted with oleanders and Art Nouveau villas. The basilica was fortified in the 1700s as protection against Turkish and Saracen assaults.
Beautiful location, great structures, best view to the open sea and town below. Easy parking. Food places. At the end of the heel of Italy. On a sunny day, what a view. Loved the visit. Would love to stay nearby next time around.

Beautiful location, great structures, best view to the open sea and town. Very nice place , large parking place .The 18c Church with adjacent Monastery is on top of a hill above the town, imo a very average one, both outside and inside. There are benches under the trees to eat. The view of the illuminated port and the nearby lighthouse is truly beautiful. The building with its huge square and long porticoes is truly fascinating. Mystical atmosphere. It is located in a very panoramic point of the city, at the top of the stairs of the Via Francigena which from the port reaches the sanctuary. The lighthouse is very beautiful and very well kept. There is a parking lot and stalls at the top, but separated from the main square. The viewpoint over the port is a must-see during your stay. The column with the statue of Mary is very beautiful and almost rivals the enormous lighthouse right nearby.

History embedded. Love how simplistic the church is inside without all the extravaganza.
Mouni M — Google review
This Basilica, named "The End of Land" is built at the southernmost tip of the Italian heel, at a place where the Adriatic meets the Ionian sea. The 18c Church with adjacent Monastery is on top of a hill above the town, imo a very average one, both outside and inside. Many souvenir stalls around further ruin the feeling, making it a very touristy place. From the Church terrace is really a great seas view, but that's it - a max 45 min visit including the time for finding parking which is really an issue in August peak season
Dejan B — Google review
Busy but still a sense of tranquility and spiritual calm. Easy to access all area even for the less able bodied. Massive car parking space . Small stall holders selling a wide variety of goods at fairly reasonable prices . Small but busy cafe selling a good selection of pasties and snacks busy but worthwhile. Take your time to unwind here and treat it all as a bit of a pilgrimage at the joining of the two seas?
