The inconspicuous rocks provided us with a shady place to rest and cool off with crystal clear water during the hike from Saint Florent to Plage du Loto. With a little climbing action you reach a hollowed out rock at the bottom where you can chill out in peace, undetected by other hikers 👍💯

A pretty bathing bay where you can swim quietly and rest from the coastal hike. The sand in the water is a little bit coarser here.

The way from Plage de Lotu back to St. Florent is not a bike path !! The times given are absolutely incomprehensible and wrong. This has to be worn for HOURS. Anyone who notices this too late and has no more time / water / energy to turn back is in absolute danger due to this tour description. I don't understand why this tour suggestion is not deleted.

Small beach with a lagoon. Unfortunately, a lot of algae (October 2021), so that the water was not inviting for bathing.
