Closer to the sea: impossible
There are oceanfront apartments. And then there's this one. The terrace overlooks the Mediterranean directly, so close that decades ago my father used to fish from the balcony. 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 meters away (4-minute walk). Forget about looking for parking, even in high season.
