This beach is absolutely gorgeous! It's not overrun with tourists from other countries, as it's mostly a hidden gem for French visitors. The coastline is stunning with its wild beauty, and it boasts the longest beach in Europe. The sand is incredibly soft, and although the water can be a bit chilly, it's perfect for cooling off on hot summer days. La Baule is a charming town that only adds to the overall appeal.
When we arrived, we requested a shaded area to sit in, but unfortunately were denied. The prawn starter was mainly comprised of salad and only had four prawns. Additionally, one of the main dishes we ordered, the 'Moules et Frites', was served cold and had to be returned to the kitchen to be reheated. The service, however, was good. However, we believe that the waitstaff would look more professional in a hotel uniform rather than their own choice of t-shirts and shorts.
This beach is truly stunning. When we visited on a Sunday, it wasn't too crowded, which was a plus. The water is great for swimming, as it's deeper and there aren't too many rocks.
