Although it's not quite the Mediterranean, the beach is still fantastic. It's a shame that the weather wasn't better, otherwise we would have gone for a swim. We had a peaceful night, listening to the soothing sound of the waves, and were treated to a stunning sunset. When we woke up this morning, the beach landscape was beautiful and we couldn't have been happier.

While the beach has pebbles and rocks on both sides, it still retains a pleasant and uncrowded atmosphere, allowing for a direct life on Chausey. Although it may not be the ideal spot for diving, the view is still breathtaking.

This is a great beach, although at times there can be quite a few pebbles. It's especially suitable for young children, and there's plenty to keep everyone entertained with the changing tides.
