One resident is enthusiastic about the village square: "With the many events and activities... there is always something to do. Excellent restaurants with many terraces open in summer and winter. The cosiest village square in the area." Another resident mentions the easy access to the beach: "There are 5 beach entrances in the village. So easy to reach without long dune rows.
