Perfect for 1 night in a camper van. Access to the sea in 3 minutes on foot. Flat, grassy. Flawless. Petanque court next door. Recently opened pop-up restaurant. Perfect welcome. Grilled lobster, new potatoes, lobster sauce. A delight. Burger raclette Angus steak fries, mussels and fries, tapas, pizzas... Music Superb setting and magnificent sunset. I highly recommend. A great moment of relaxation. Thanks to Julien, the cook and the waiter who comes from Gien.
