Monopoli is a charming, picturesque seaside town.
Monopoli is a charming, picturesque seaside town. We wanted to stay somewhere that was central for day trips and it was a toss up between Monopoli, Polignano a Mare and Alberobello. We visited the latter two and was so glad we had picked Monopoli. It is the larger of the towns, and is still largely undiscovered by foreign tourists (but a popular destination for the locals).
It isn't overly crowded and has a good selection of restaurants. The town shuts down for siesta roughly 2 to 4:30 but you will still find an odd cafe that stays open.
Would recommend to stay in the old town. Lovely maze of natrow streets. It isn't overrun by tourism and as such feels very authentic.
We hired a car and drove to alberobello, Locorotondo and Martina Franca. All easy drives on country roads (even easy for us who usually drive on the the left side of the road.) The hardest part was driving out of monopoli and we quickly learned that the main rule was 'give way to the right'. This applied to almost every type of intersection. We were lucky with free parking in monopoli which we found in the new town (10 min walk from old town). We also found that google maps (which we downloaded offline) were better to use than gps.
We took a train into polignano a mare (which was the first stop going north). The train ticket machine has an english option and was easy to use.
We stayed in monopoli for 4 nights but could have stayed another 2 for more day trips. It was the perfect base to come home to.

Monopoli is very clean.
Monopoli is very clean... the shops and restaurants were fantastic. We loved walking down the main streets browsing through the little shops. It was very easy to get around. My daughters favorite part was when we relaxed by the water and she got to swim... our teens enjoyed exploring on their own. Next time we hope to rent some bikes and see more of the countryside.

The old town is a harbour town, still lots of fisherboats, not too many yachts around. That seems better to fit. Harbour and town buildings are not all in the best state, which - again - is more charming than tourism shaped old towns like nearby Alberobello.

We had never been to this part of Italy, and we loved it.
We had never been to this part of Italy, and we loved it. Monopoli is
extremely clean, with nice shops & restaurants, safe, interesting and makes a great base for visiting other small towns and villages in the area. Our favorite
restaurant in Monopoli was Dal Ghiottone. It is in the main square, so easy to find.
We could have enjoyed at least one more day in Monopoli.
