The Gargano or Monte Gargano is a promontory in northern of Apulia belonging to the province of Foggia which juts into the Adriatic Sea in a nest-east direction. It is some 65 km long, 40 km wide, covers an area of 3,015 sq. km and reaches its highest point at Monte Calvo (1065 m). The promontory Monte Gargano ( Monte Gargano is a mountain in Apulia - Italy ) is a limestone and dolomite massif surrounded on, three sides by sea and bordered by the Candelaro and Fortore rivers to ihe west. Low hill-land separates it from the Apennines and gives it thai unique geographic identity which has made it a sort of biological island and which in the past led to an isolation which profoundly affected both the population and culture. The origins of the Gargano promontory are linked to a cretaceous uplift dating back to theMesozoic age (about 70 million years ago) but its present configuration was defined in the last 10,000 years above all due to fluvial transportation which/armed the Tavoliere to the east and south and the Sipontoni lagoon and Capitanata marshes around the gulfo Manfredonia, while the accumulation of sediments led to the formation of coastal bars which transformed what were originally gulp open up to the sea into the Lesina and Varano lagoons. A unique characteristic of the Gargano is the widespread karst phenomena, an erosion process where water, enriched with carbon dioxide, is able to disaggregate and model the limestone, creating dolinns, swallow holes, underground cavities, rock bridges and other characteristic phenomena such as ttu, furrowed fields, grooves in the land alternating with limestone create. The comMned action of the karst phenomena and mechanical erosion due to the motion of the waves has created many sea grottos and rock arches dotted along most of the splendid coastline, above all between Mattinata ,Vieste ( Map of Vieste ), Peschici, Tremiti Isles and Rodi Garganico.
