About

The Grande Plage is Saint-Lunaire’s central beach. Well sheltered between the Pointe du Nick and the Pointe du Décollé, it faces north-east and enjoys a very urban setting without losing its bay character. Swimming is best at high tide: at low tide, the sea goes out to the first moorings and the tourist office strongly advises against swimming. The beach is lifeguarded every day in July and August from 11.30 am to 1 pm and from 2 pm to 7 pm. It has a first-aid post, drinking water, toilets, a kids’ club, Hippocampe beach wheelchairs and a Tiralo. Access is mainly by steps, but there is a ramp at the western end. In 2026, official monitoring described an equipped, lifeguarded site with showers, drinking water, toilets, a first-aid post and wheelchair access; water quality was rated excellent in 2025. The town bans dogs and other animals from the beaches from 15 June to 15 September, except guide dogs.
