The beach is massive and stunning, but swimming is not allowed due to the dangerous baïnes, especially during high tide. However, you can still enjoy bathing with caution, especially if you have children. It's important to note that dogs are not permitted on the beach, as a gendarme swiftly reminded me by asking me to leave.

The beach is absolutely stunning with its white sand, blue sea, and big waves. I really enjoyed my time there, and I highly recommend visiting not just the beach, but the entire area.

I really enjoy this cozy beach. At the entrance, there's a food truck that offers crepes, coffee, and ice cream. It's not too crowded, and the waves make for a great surfing spot. Additionally, there are plenty of running trails to explore. One particularly lovely route is along the shelter area towards the pen Hir point, where you can visit the impressive 2nd World War memorial museum and take in the stunning view of the pen Hir rocks.
