“Première île visitée belle randonnée autour de l’île 2 ieme balade assez limitée et rien d’ouvert pour déjeuner et baignade,par contre dernière île piège à touristes non averti directement et sans autre possibilité un resto plutôt cool mais hors de prix pour l’endroit. Rien d’autre à faire que d’attendre au soleil 35degres le retour du bateau , aucune empathie du restaurateur pour nous mettre à l’abri si on ne consommait pas. On comprend que les affaires sont difficiles mais stratégie commerciale très mauvaise à mon avis on doit pouvoir satisfaire toutes les bourses,tout les clients surtout quand ils ne sont pas nombreux !!”
