Azur Plénitude
- October 2024
La plage Paloma se distingue par son cadre exceptionnel. L'eau est claire et peu profonde, parfaite pour une baignade agréable. Les gravillons et petits galets ne sont pas si gênants pour s'allonger. La plage est petite et charmante, mais elle devient très fréquentée en été, ce qui peut nuire à l'ambiance paisible du lieu. L'accès se fait par un escalier assez étroit, pas idéal pour les poussettes ou les personnes à mobilité réduite. Le principal moyen de locomotion pour s'y rendre est la voiture, mais les places de parking se font rares en période estivale.
