End the evening with a meal at Café de Rome. Known for authentic French food like Sole Meuniere, it is a short walk from the beach and offers a great way to cap off the sunset experience.
Local tip
The beach is quiet, so you will likely have the view to yourself. Bring a light jacket as it can get breezy near the water after sunset.
