Baia dell’Orto, entered between Capo d’Otranto (40°06′N 18°31′E) and Punta Faci, 1. 5 miles N, affords anchorage in offshore winds. The recommended anchorage lies about half mile S of Punta Faci in 15 m sand, avoiding above-water rocks which fringe the shores of the bay, and a steep-to rocky bank with depths of less than 10 m over it, which extends about 550 meters from the NW side.
