6 Pleasant

It's best to bring something to sit on and wear shoes because the beach is rocky and not suitable for walking barefoot. The beach is small and the water appears to be clean, but beyond that there isn't much else to note.

10 Exceptional

The beach is made of stones, not pebbles, so water shoes are recommended. The water is crystal clear and the waves are stunning. There aren't many people around, making it a great spot for snorkeling. The beach's rocky terrain also attracts a variety of fish.

The cove is stunning, although it may not necessarily be considered a proper beach due to its small size.

The beach is pretty standard in terms of size and crowd. The water is clear and the temperature is pleasant. The area is well-maintained and clean. The visitors on that particular summer day were peaceful, unobtrusive, and amiable.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Fernandel beach (Bouches-du-Rhone) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Fernandel beach (Bouches-du-Rhone) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Fernandel beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
