If you're new to naturism or not accustomed to it, this beach is a great option. I highly recommend it, especially since the sand is golden.

This beach is absolutely stunning, with a seemingly endless stretch of golden sand that extends between Palavas and Frontignan. The beach is also adorned with a variety of beautiful shells, and the most impressive feature is the consistently impressive waves.
