This is the best beach I've been to. The sand is incredibly white and powdery. The beach itself is very wide and long, providing plenty of space for everyone. There are also lots of chairs and shaded areas available. They even have a snack bar right there on the beach. If you're into scuba diving, you're in luck because they offer that too. The views are breathtaking and the snorkeling experience is absolutely fantastic.

This stunning beach boasts a serene atmosphere, making it a peaceful alternative to the bustling Porto Marie. The best part? There's no entry fee! However, be aware that the number of available beds is limited. While snorkeling is an option, it may not be as enjoyable on a windy day due to the water becoming murky.

Admission is free, and you can rent lounge chairs for a mere $5. The food and drinks are reasonably priced, and the beach offers ample opportunities for swimming, snorkeling, and diving. Plus, you can rent equipment right on site. All in all, it's the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the island's laid-back atmosphere.

The rooms were clean and the service at the Rendezvous bar was excellent. However, the service at the restaurants was lacking and it seemed like the servers didn't want to be there. The snorkeling off the beach was fantastic, better than at other beaches we visited. The food was okay, but the steak at the seaside grill was very tough. Despite these issues, I would still consider going back as the views were the best out of any island we have visited.
