"Beautiful beach, not necessarily well oriented, but which remains easier to access than the other beaches going towards Plougasnou."

"Pretty beach but quite polluted and for several years strange people have been settling there and having noisy parties and fishing excessively. Quite a bit of rock too so be careful if you intend to swim."
