Closer to the sea: impossible
There are apartments facing the sea. And then there's this one. The terrace overlooks the Mediterranean directly, so close that my father used to fish from the balcony decades ago. Today the beach has more sand, but the feeling is still the same: falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up with the Mediterranean in front of you. 🚗 Private covered garage included. Large parking space located 300 metres away (4 minutes on foot). Forget about looking for parking, even in high season.
