Latest reviews on Sisteron's beaches

Turtle Beach
2 Daisy Milo

We arrived at the beach with high expectations, but unfortunately, we were let down. My wife ordered lamb, but it arrived undercooked. We requested a replacement, which was provided, but it greatly affected our overall dining experience. Additionally, the dessert we ordered was of very low quality, indicating that it was likely purchased at a cheap price. They charged a hefty 12.00€ per portion for it. Overall, we do not recommend this place and have no intention of returning. On a positive note, the location is beautiful as it is situated right by the waterfront. Furthermore, parking comes at a cost of 8€.

Additionally, a nearby convenience store provides easy access to both delectable ice cream treats and essential groceries.

We went to this beach in mid-November and had a wonderful day with our dogs. The water was shallow enough for them to swim comfortably. However, it's important to note that during the summer or high season, dogs may not be allowed on the beach. On the downside, the beach and sea were quite dirty with plastic littered everywhere. Additionally, some visitors left behind their trash after having lunch or spending time with their children, including plastic, tissues, and even diapers.
