The beach is quite small, but the water is lovely and overall it's a very pleasant spot.

This beach is an excellent spot for snorkeling, with a diverse array of vegetation and fish visible in the crystal-clear water. However, it's quite a trek from the main beach, particularly in hot weather, so be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring plenty of water.

This is a charming little beach located between Gigaro and Brouis, and the best part is that it's open to the public for free.

This beach is absolutely stunning and it's worth a visit. The fact that it's a naturist beach may not be for everyone, but it's definitely a unique experience. Plus, it's great that the beach has public free entry.
