About the beach
Cavallucci, within Isola di Capo Rizzuto (the province of Crotone, Calabria), is a sandy beach on the Ionian Sea.
The beach faces southeast (132°). It is most sheltered when the Mistral (NW) or Ponente (W) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Sirocco (SE) or Levante (E) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
