You also take a break in the middle of it and enjoy the view or a soda on a terrace, or you even can go for a refreshing bath in the sea if the weather is warm enough. The large number of walkers who are also having a fun time or getting relaxed in the promenade can get into your path in this area, so we recommend you to have patience and go carefully.
