What to do in Plage des bonnes? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?

If you like outdoor activities, the Plage des bonnes can offer such an experience. In particular - SUP surfing. The beach stands out for an excellent base for this kind of sport. And the bonus is the gorgeous scenery from the water. Just try, we recommend it!

Extremes can be moderate or excessive, so if you are a fan of the first type, than Plage des bonnes welcomes you, offering kite and windsurfing. If on the contrary, it is not your kind of activity, we recommend you to find another beach, since the presence of lots of kite surfers on water can have a negative impact on the comfort of your leisure.

The beach is really lovely, but the water can be a tad chilly. It's a great spot for taking leisurely strolls, and the sand is a beautiful golden color.
