the french beach club...





The French love the beach and they are good at it. They know how to make a day at the beach comfortable, relaxed and chilled. Whether it is the more chi chi clubs on the Cote d'Azur or this remote stretch of beach in western Corsica, the French have it wired. The beach club not only looks heavenly, it is sublime. The attention to detail with the decor and comfort makes even the most reluctant sun worshipper happy. At this beach club the furniture is made from reclaimed driftwood and the sun beds are oversized cushions arranged for lounging. Under the shade cover of olive and cork trees the tables are laid for lunch and finished with wildflowers from the maquis. No fast food here, lunch is the day's catch with vegetables and salad from their own potager..... 

Have a wonderful weekend...I shall kiss Corsica goodbye tonight and brave the ferry once more for Marseille....xv
