It's a perfect spot to enjoy the Mediterranean: a seafront path with a bike lane, palm trees, bars, and terraces where the summer atmosphere blends with the sea breeze.

Pretty flat along the promenade. Easy going. High gear. Lots of roundabouts. Lots of traffic and parked cars especially mid June to mid September
