Great cycle path by the water.

Highlight • Beach

Beautiful small beach with two accesses, via the North it's a bit longer but you arrive directly on the sand, and there are fewer people.

A very nice tour. Since everything is in the sun, take enough water with you to drink. We had a delicious meal at an oyster farmer's on the way and enjoyed the view of the Atlantic.
