Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Boisvinet beach (Vendee) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Boisvinet beach (Vendee) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Boisvinet beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

6 Pleasant

This beach is located just a few minutes from the town center and is situated by the entrance of the town harbor. While it's okay to swim during high tide, the water quality isn't great when the water level drops, and there's a lot of algae and mud. Additionally, sailing boats use this area, which limits the space for swimming. However, there are lifeguards and a natural water basin. The sand grains are quite large, making it difficult for kids to build sandcastles. There are bars and beach volleyball courts available, and it's a great spot to watch the fireworks on July 14th.
