Peschici is a town in the province of Foggia in the Apulia region of southeast Italy. Famous for its seaside resorts, its territory belongs to the Gargano National Park and to the Gargano Mountain Community. Peschici is situated on the north-eastern coast of Gargano promontory, 9 kilometers (5.6 mi) east of San Menaio, 14 kilometers (8.7 mi) from Rodi Garganico, and 19 kilometers (12 mi) west of Vieste. The town sits over a karst spur facing the sea, with a height of more than 100 meters (330 ft); the territory features a number of coastal watch towers. Flora includes sectors of Mediterranean shrubland and, in the inner areas, Aleppo pines.

Hello! My girlfriend and I are visiting Puglia next week, starting in Bari and then going to Polignano a Mare, Ostuni, and Lecce. We were wondering how reliable public transportation is, and if we would be able to rely on it in October?

Thanks!
