This beach is quite convenient as there is paid parking available within a short walking distance. Although the beach isn't very wide, it can still accommodate plenty of people. The waterfront is quite nice and flat for quite a while, making it a safe option for kids. All in all, it's a great option for families.

I made a nice little stop at this beach on my way, but it was pretty windy when I visited. Luckily, I was able to park my car for free. The beach was covered in lots of beautiful shells.

The beach was stunning and had ample space to relax. The rocks kept the children entertained for hours and we even spotted crabs and jellyfish, making our time there enjoyable.

This is a great spot for families, especially the 74 beach on the right side of the kite surfing area, since the water is shallow enough for kids to enjoy.

It was absolutely lovely! The beach was such an amazing place to take a peaceful stroll. If you take exit 80, there's a great creperie, bathrooms, and outdoor showers to wash off the sand. I went on a Monday and it was very quiet, with some people exercising and others fishing. As the day went on, more families showed up. The water was warm and clear - it was truly a fantastic experience.
