4 Frustrating

There is currently a high amount of algae floating in the water, creating a seaweed soup in some areas that is not very enjoyable.

The beach is beautiful to look at, but the water is murky with lots of algae and flies, making it unpleasant to stay.

This beach is a wonderful spot for families, with a large marine area to explore. During low tide, you can uncover hidden marine life and enjoy the beautiful beach. The volunteer or staff rescuers are extremely friendly and we are grateful for their daily surveillance efforts. Let's work together to preserve this beautiful part of France!

8 Very good

The beach has all the necessary facilities such as toilets, outdoor showers, and nice restaurants nearby. The beach itself is not very wide and the sand is more like construction sand with rocks and shells scattered throughout. The warm water tends to attract a lot of algae, making it murky and filled with algae during high tide.
