Zagare or lemon blossoms are in fact the flowers of the lemon tree, widespread on the Gargano.

These two stacks of extraordinary beauty, emerge in fact from a beautiful turquoise sea and crystal clear. The stacks of Baia delle Zagare, are so beautiful and famous, that they have become one of the most important symbols of the natural beauty of all Puglia. They are made of white and dazzling white stone, as well as rocks overhanging the sea that enclose the Bay of the Zagare. One of the two stacks in particular, is striking for its almost perfect arch shape. It seems almost to have been carved by the hands of an experienced artist and for this reason said Magic Arch.
