I've never seen such a crowded and poorly maintained beach. It's almost exclusively local. It's almost impossible to swim deep into the water. Snorkeling is completely out of the question. We left immediately and luckily went to Pont d'Esny. We can highly recommend it, and it's less than 10 minutes away.
