The water would have been even nicer with the sun, but it was also such a great tour. Paths very alpine and varied. Great views, even as far as Jersey and Mont Saint Michel. As a highlight two dolphins 🐬🐬😁

Nice walk with great views and some slight ups and downs. You could see the (very small) Mount St Michel at the beginning. Don't park directly at the beach (pretty expensive). There are free parking spots along the short road down.
