Excellent as structure is location. Unfortunately the basic rules are not enforced, from the well marked but not respected timetables to the separate collection, total anarchy. More control is needed since everything is not cheap.

Beautiful, very quiet, with direct access to the beach and rocks (beautiful sea). It has all the comforts, clean bathrooms, coin-operated hot shower. In our opinion a bit expensive. The external part of the beach is shaded and very well organized. Large and easily accessible camper pitches
