Really cool place. Great food, friendly people, and enough like Metropolitan France (i.e. the France that is that land mass between Spain and Germany) that the differences stand out. That town is fortunately sloped a bit so that worsening harbour storms and the first few metres of sea level rise will only take out the centre of the town.
