Travel reviews
Super interesting not to miss the visit of the submarine.
(Translated by Google) The visit to the submarine is very impressive given the narrowness of the vessel, with a very nice experience thanks to the audio guide which is really well done because you can go at your own pace. No visit to the lighthouse for personal reasons.
(Translated by Google) A family visit to the submarine is highly recommended. Incredible!!!
(Translated by Google) very interesting submarine tour with the audio guide, you move at your own pace, although (here again) the tourist buses force us to move quickly...
lighthouse visit also interesting (view mixed for us due to the fog)
