When looking for a great beach in Gallipoli you need look no further! Crystal Beach just south of town is the perfect place. You can park your car within 1 minute walk and once you arrive Marco and his family/team welcome you like you are a local! The second day we arrived at the beach I was welcomed with “Buon Giorno Mister Eelco”! They are all very sweet and helpful. The umbrellas and beds are perfect and the beach is very clean and well kept. They have a lovely little restaurant for cold drinks and great food! Thank you for a lovely stay at your Crystal Beach Marco! Fino alla prossima volta! Ciao Eelco and family

(Translated by Google) Lido chaotic and not very organized, for bookings you still go ahead with a pen and paper and if you book by phone then your booking ends up not being found. Spacing rules disregarded, the umbrellas are planted from time to time and in the rear rows we find ourselves massed. Then the umbrellas are all tilted and you cannot stand under them. We chose this beach because of the good reviews but I think they are the result of relatives and friends therefore not very reliable. Speedbird (Original) Lido caotico e poco organizzato, per le prenotazioni si va ancora avanti con foglio e penna e se prenoti per telefono poi finisce che la tua prenotazione non si ritrovi. Norme di distanziamento disattese, gli ombrelloni vengono piantati di volta in volta e nelle file posteriori ci si ritrova ammassati. Gli ombrelloni poi sono tutti inclinati e sotto non ci si può stare in piedi. Abbiamo scelto questo lido per via delle buone recensioni ma credo siano frutto di parenti ed amici quindi poco attendibili. Speedbird

(Translated by Google) Great experience! The friendly and very kind staff, unique welcome: we felt at home ❤️. Clean Lido, the blue, crystalline, beautiful sea ... Definitely come back. (Original) Ottima esperienza! Lo staff simpatico e gentilissimo, accoglienza unica : ci siamo sentiti in famiglia❤️. Lido pulito, il mare azzurro, cristallino, bellissimo... Da ritornarci sicuramente.

Amazing sea, I've seen many Italian beaches, but this was definitely one of the best. Water was really crystaly clean, amazing colour, it was clean even if it was windy and there were waves. We also liked staff there. Owner was friendly and in his kiosk we had tasty salad and pasta. I hope I will come back one time.

Nice beach, clear water. Bit pricey but it is what it is in Italy with nice spots being privatised. Salesguys are a bit many but not overpushy and trying to make a living. They basically bring everything they got to the beach, which is kind of funny as well in my opinion.

The place is great. The food is good and the staff is very friendly. Never mind it fronts a beautiful beach of white sand and crystal clear blue water. Thanks Marco and family!

Nice beach and clear water, very good for family with kids. Owner and staff are very kind. Umbrella and sun bed are reasonable priced.

Great beach!

Loved our day at Crystal Beach ! €30 for two beds and an umbrella. Food is very reasonably priced and delicious with quite a full menu on offer. Parking in the lot behind the club is €5 for the day.

Great, shallow, translucent water, no pebbles, just a nicely small-grained sand. Crystal Beach is a family business - nice and vivacious people. The type of Italian family one saw in films - loud and open to strangers. English is poor though, but that’s ok - that’s not uncommon in Puglia.

We spent 10 days at Crystal Beach, Marco and his family treated us as family and made our experience unforgettable. Beyond the natural beauties of the shoreline, Marco offers a wide choice of typical dishes from Salento and an impeccable service. We look forward to our next holiday here!
