My favorite beach (after Conigli!) - Excellent service and good food
Cala Croce is absolutely one of the most beautiful coves on the island, my absolute favorite of all (except Conigli Beach, of course :-))! It has an excellent sandy beach and a gorgeous sea. The only shame is that there was a large pile of seaweed (Posidonia) on the beach that no one had ever moved; when I asked the lifeguard, who was a bit annoyed, he replied that it was due to Hurricane Harry (January?!).
Aside from this detail, we relied on Calacroceclub da Mimmo and the experience was definitely positive.
Useful information and food:
Equipment: €30 for a full-day service (2 loungers and 1 umbrella). There is no half-day option, which encourages you to stay there all day to take advantage of the various options at the bar or restaurant.
Dining: There's an excellent selection of sandwiches, salads, focaccia, and arancini at the bar, or at the à la carte restaurant. We had lunch at the restaurant, with prices absolutely in line with the island's high-quality restaurants. I must say the first courses were truly excellent: we ordered the swordfish and salicornia gnocchi and the pasta alla Norma, both delicious!
Recommended for its convenience, the beauty of the bay, and the quality of the service!
