    Hiking

    The "fossil coast" is one of the most beautiful stretches of beach I know (and a plant conservation area). As it is far from mass tourism (there is only one campsite) and relatively difficult to reach, it is very quiet here and the further you go from the entrance (steep and via stairs), the quieter it becomes. The small beach bar is good for a cold beer but nothing more. The highlight is definitely the ancient rock formation and the amazing play of colors when the sun shines on it in the afternoon.

    Yes, and if you are very lucky, the dolphins from the Sado will also swim past.
