The Tremiti Islands (or Diomedee) are an archipelago of the Adriatic Sea, located 12 nautical miles north of the Gargano promontory and 24 east of the Molise coast.
Administratively, the archipelago is the Italian municipality of Isole Tremiti of 496 inhabitants in the province of Foggia in Puglia.
The municipality is part of the Gargano National Park. Since 1989 a portion of its territory constitutes the Tremiti Islands Marine Nature Reserve.
Even being the smallest and second least populous town in Puglia (with fewer inhabitants there is only Celle di San Vito), it is one of the most important tourist centers in the entire region. For the quality of its bathing waters it has been repeatedly awarded the Blue Flag, a prestigious recognition of the Foundation for Environmental Education.

Santa Maria Castelpetroso

    “Going through Molise means immersing yourself in nature, ranging from the Apennine peaks of the Mainarde and Matese up to the transparent waters of the Adriatic, from the interesting archaeological sites to the sweetness of small towns, real oases of tranquility.”

The Molise coast

The Matese is one of the most important calcareous massifs of the peninsula, both for territorial extension and for the richness of the waters. The main tourist resorts are Campitello Matese, a renowned ski resort, along with Capracotta, which has two major ski resorts, both for alpine skiing and cross-country skiing.
Another important mountain range is that of the Mainarde, with deep gorges and forgotten atmospheres, linked to the pastoral world.
