Azur Plénitude - October 2024

La plage du Moure Rouge est un excellent compromis pour les personnes recherchant à la fois du fun et de la tranquillité. Adaptée à tous, la plage offre des zones de baignade peu profondes et surveillées ainsi que du sable fin et un ponton pour bronzer. Les activités nautiques et les plateformes flottantes offrent aux plus dynamiques de quoi s'amuser. Le parking gratuit du Palm Beach à proximité est un vrai plus si vous vous déplacez en voiture. En revanche, pour les habitués du train, la gare est relativement loin à pied.
