This section of the beach is "decorated" by numerous bunkers and concrete blocks. They once served to defend the coast during the Second World War from a feared German invasion, but today they effectively prevent the beach from being eroded by the sea, providing peaceful coastal protection.

Between the waterline and the dunes is a row of concrete blocks with bunkers in a number of places. You can best see the line at low tide, because the beach is largely under water at high tide.
