Plage Les Galathees
10 Lena Kaji

This beach is absolutely amazing. Even during the cold weather, it tends to be quiet, especially with the COVID situation. However, I still had a wonderful time there. It was truly a sight to behold, being able to walk around and admire the breathtaking landscape. I also visited the beach this summer, and with the COVID restrictions easing up, there were a lot of people. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed my time there. I attempted fishing in the sea, going about 20-40 meters deep, which made the water waist-deep. Unfortunately, I didn't catch any fish in the end, but I had a fantastic time with my fiancé and her family. Going to Fort-Mahon beach is always a pleasure.
