The beach is an amazing location! For those traveling in a motorhome, there are a limited number of parking spots available right in front of the beach, offering a breathtaking view. Although the beach may be small, it is still possible to fish on foot during low tide. Additionally, there are convenient paths that lead directly to Piriac-sur-mer, which can be accessed during low tide.
