User reviews
"This cove is absolutely fantastic. It's on the smaller side, so during peak season or busy times, it might be best to avoid. However, on a beautiful day, it's truly a great spot. There's parking available nearby on the roadside (although I'm not sure if it's technically allowed), and a small path provides easy access to the creek."
Lynne Landon
"This beach is absolutely breathtaking and can only be reached by paddle. Additionally, the beach has light pebbles which add to its unique charm."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Plage du Maurin (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 du Maurin (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 du Maurin 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.
