La Lette Blanche Access |
| |
Coming from VIELLE SAINT GIRONS Plage drive as if you were going back to the main road. Make a left when you see a sign indicating "Camping Air Naturelle" pass the cementary and then follow this small road for about 6km. The road has some sharp curves and goes over a bridge. After 6km you see a small sign "La Lette Blanche" that takes you to the park ground of that beach. Beware of the potholes in the road and the parking lot ! Don´t leave valuables in the car. |
