Polignano a Mare is a town on the Adriatic in the province of Bari, Puglia, southern Italy, about 32 km southeast of Bari in a straight line. Its economy rests on tourism, farming and fishing. The area has been settled since prehistoric times, as digs at Santa Barbara show. It is believed to be the site of the ancient Greek city of Neapolis of Apulia, which some historians think was founded in the 4th century BC. It lay on the Roman Via Traiana. The old town stands on towering limestone cliffs above the sea, with white and yellow houses packed along the rock's edge and sea caves carved beneath them. In its middle is the small Lama Monachile cove with its pebble beach, framed by high cliffs and crossed by an old Roman bridge. Visitors wander the old town's lanes to terraces over the sea, go down to the pebble beach to swim, and take boats to see the sea caves from the water. The town is crowded in summer; spring and autumn are quieter.
