    Nice spot by the beach but indeed only space for 2, maybe even only one if you have a RV.

    The address here is wrong as it leads up and behind the beach front but the space is on Colson Lane.

    Dump point further down the street

    A safe and quiet place in front of the beach. A coffee shop just by the parking lot and enjoyable costal walk.

    Cracker of a spot.

    Boat club just down the road for some dinner. Cafe three houses down for a good morning coffee and just across the road from the ocean for a beautiful walk any time. We had the car park to our selfs and no traffic noise at all.

    We were concerned at the beginning as se saw some laughint gaz canister (récréative drugs) on the parking but we asked the locals, who said it was quite safe.

    We spent the night and it was surprisingly calm (After 10pm, otherwise there's music everywhere) . Not a bad spot
