User reviews
"The beach is quite enjoyable, offering shaded areas beneath the pine trees, a designated swimming zone with supervision, and a lovely lake view. Additionally, there are spots along the water with seagrass beds and glasswort, making it an ideal place for discovering small crabs. However, for those who dislike mud, be aware that there is a bit of it."
Le Jardin d'Oraline
"This particular beach on the lake is known for having the least amount of current, resulting in slightly muddy water. It also has some rocks, plenty of small crabs and shrimps, and offers a good amount of shade. It is an ideal spot for families with young children to enjoy swimming."
