(3) Let the road branch off to the right and stay on the coastal path, which becomes the Sentier de Belle Estello. Walk past two restaurants and you’ll reach Plage des Bonnettes.

(4) Cross the beach, then take the road that climbs to the right up to the car park.

(11) Continue to the right along the Sentier du Littoral Cap Brun, passing Plage de l’Anse. At Restaurant l’Escale, take the steps on the right to join the Chemin de la Batterie Basse on the right. (At the stairs, you can head straight ahead for about 100 metres to the Notre-Dame du Cap Falcon Chapel, then retrace your steps). Continue to a car park.

(12) Take the PR® on the right, the Sentier des Douaniers, for about 2 km, to reach the water sports centre.
