A beautiful beach promenade lined with Belle Époque villas and blue-and-white beach cabins. At the southern end, there's an ice cream van from the local ice cream parlor Nicole Artisan Glacier. At €3.50 per scoop, it's not exactly cheap, but it's delicious! Quality has its price. It's best to take advantage of the bulk discount and get three scoops for a total of €7. :)
