User reviews
"What a stunning locale! It's a hidden gem, not yet overrun by the masses. The tranquility and preservation of this beach are simply divine. However, it's a shame that those with physical limitations may not be able to enjoy its splendor. It's almost as if the beach is saying, Sorry, no wheels allowed."
Nicoletto Santoro
"The beach is truly stunning, however, due to its small size, it can become quite congested at times. The path leading to the beach is quite steep, requiring one to carefully descend from the road. Once you reach the beach, you will need to traverse over some rocky terrain, making it essential to wear proper footwear, such as regular shoes, instead of flip-flops."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Cala Bianca (Sicily island) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Cala Bianca (Sicily island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Cala Bianca for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
