💡 Tips

Prepare to disconnect; Wi-Fi and cell signals can be very unreliable here.
Ensure proper sun protection, as there is very little natural shade on the vast beaches and dunes.
Arrive early in the morning at the docks to secure the best and freshest seafood of the day.
Respect the sand dunes and do not drive vehicles over them to protect the fragile ecosystem.
