The New Chapter of Cala Pulpo

Just minutes from Monaco yet a world apart, Cala Pulpo returns this season with a fresh identity. The beach club and restaurant has embraced transformation. At the heart of this evolution is a southern Italian chef whose roots bring authenticity to the plate and soul to the experience. His menu? A celebration of coastal generosity: handmade pasta, wood-fired whole fish, silky tagliolini with lobster, and tender cuts of premium meat — from T-bone to wagyu. Every dish echoes the sea breeze and sun-warmed produce of the region. But the culinary upgrade is just the beginning.

A Refined Atmosphere

This year, Cala Pulpo unveils a thoughtfully curated new look. Think white canvas parasols fluttering against stone terraces, rustic-chic accents, and tranquil dining corners shaded by soft linens. The design is intentionally organic. From the moment you arrive (perhaps by boat tender from Monaco), everything feels considered but never contrived.It's a place where time feels slower, where mornings stretch into afternoons, and lunch easily turns into sunset cocktails.

More Than Just a Beach Club

Every Sunday begins with calm: an 8 a.m. beachfront yoga class followed by a healthy breakfast overlooking the turquoise bay. The experience is intimate, refreshing, and the perfect way to reset before diving into the day’s pleasures.

As the sun sinks, the tempo shifts. Saturday belong to DJ sets — laid-back but electric, creating a vibrant golden-hour mood. On Sundays, live music takes over, with acoustic sets and smooth vocals that match the rhythm of the waves. Beyond the table, Cala Pulpo has quietly expanded its soul. A new pop-up boutique, nestled within the grounds, offers a rotating selection of luxury items — the kind you stumble upon and instantly fall for.

Riviera Style

The details make the difference. Cala Pulpo offers seamless boat transfers — whether you’re coming from Monaco or lounging offshore on your own vessel. Prefer to dine aboard? Delivery directly to your boat is just a call away. Service remains discreet, polished, and warm. The first-row sunbeds, shaded and inviting, are among the most sought-after along this stretch of the coast, with smoothies to start the day and cocktails that feel like summer in a glass.

Cala Pulpo isn’t loud. It’s not chasing trends. It’s simply tuned into what matters: atmosphere, flavor, and a certain kind of ease that’s increasingly rare. Whether you come for yoga, for lunch, or for the sunset soundtrack — you stay for the feeling.
