Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Plage des Pissarelles (Maritime Alps) 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 Plage des Pissarelles (Maritime Alps) 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 Plage des Pissarelles 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.

Definitely one of my favorite nudist beaches, however it is a hike getting to it. You have to have strong knees and good endurance. Make sure to pack water, plenty, and some snacks as it’s tough getting back and finding a shop.

Very nice small rocky beach in front of cristalline blue waters. Parking is small so make it early if you want to make it. It's a 20 minutes walk from the parking lot. Water here is beautiful and it gets really chilly because of some natural cold springs.

Extraordinary view, beautiful and very clear blue water. Sadly hard to reach because of the never ending stairway. No restaurant at the beach, bring your own food and drinks. Snack-corner at the parking. The guy from the Snack-corner comes to the beach every few hours then he sells drinks and ice cream from his coolbox.
