Our opinion on the St Germain sur Ay Beach

Adresse of the St Germain sur Ay Beach : Rue de la Mer 50430 Saint-Germain-sur-Ay

The central beach of Saint Germain sur Ay is located in the city center of the seaside resort (few shops on the seafront, mostly houses). It stretches for about 2 kilometers. In summer, the central part at the level of the launching wedge is monitored. 

The evironment is very pleasant with small dunes. The sand is mixed with some pebble.

At low tide, the sea retreats very far. The beach then becomes a playground for fishing on foot. We can also see the ballet of fishmen tractors who come up their boats.

South and north areas are wilder and less frequented. Ideal for those looking for a little calm.

Access to the beach is made by the sea boulevard. Free parking on the seafront.
