In April, we were out walking the beach at sunrise, which was around 6 am, and back by maybe 7ish. Each morning i would say we met maybe 10 to 15 people and probably 3 or 4 were sans textile, and all were men. It was quite the opposite in 2017, with both sexes or at least topless. We never saw a Gendarme, so i guess its up to your comfort level.
