The eastern cornice and Cap Manuel, for the calm of their vesper walks along the cliffs and the beauty of a sunset.

The beach of Yoff, to admire the spectacle of fishermen returning to the port and selling their fish on the beach, a spectacular moment of life at sunset will not fail under any pretext.
