How to avoid the worst of it today

Bari Vecchia Morning Orecchiette dry on screens and bakeries pull focaccia before the cruise wave arrives.
The Castello Svevo After 13:00 When the lanes tighten, the castle's cool halls and the seafront carry the afternoon.
Polignano a Mare Afternoon The cove is minutes away by train, and it turns a heavy day into a two-town day.

Where the crowds are

Strada delle Orecchiette & the maze arteries: The pasta lane and the routes to the basilica tighten with each cruise morning.
Piazza del Ferrarese at night: The old town's main square, packed and cheerful on weekend evenings.

Quiet places in Bari

The Lungomare: Kilometres of seafront colonnade; there is always room.
The basilica's cloister quarter: Steps from the crowd, pilgrim-quiet.
