September is a great time to visit. The weather is perfect and the water is refreshing. We found parking easily and walked down a few sets of stairs, maybe a 5 minute walk. You'll be greeted the famous Pugliese turquoise water. The setting is gorgeous and rocky. There is a little cafe that serves all the typical drinks and light bites. Loved the vibe and I realize we were lucky with our timing. I don't recommend in the middle of summer through August as it's packed everywhere in Italy.

The mushroom risotto is pretty disappointed I felt like the right texture was wrong. Maybe that's my American opinion that's why I'm still giving them five stars. Customer service was exceptional.

There is a public section, but for the nicest spots you'll need to rent an umbrella (with chairs). Since it's sitting on a cliff, they built some platforms here to put all the equipment on. Works very well and you get some nice views out of it. Prices were fine, paid 18 Euros for the lot (two chairs). There are some stairs leading down to the waters. A fine natural pool with some shallow sections. The stone walls will protect from the waves. If you feel more adventerous of course you can head into the open water. At the Chiosco Cutty Shark you can grab some drinks (reasonable priced cold beer) and there are showers and bathrooms on the grounds. In high season it can get really hot here. At 4pm it was still above 100°F (40°C). So if you want it a bit cooler, show up later in the afternoon. All in all a nice beach club. Nice staff, lovely views. Best part: Our dog was allowed (even in the water as well).
