A unique library, right on the seafront promenade. It only has three tables with four seats each, so it's likely to be packed during exam periods.

A unique library, right on the seafront promenade. It only has three tables with four seats each, so it's likely to be packed during exam periods. It's rather noisy, as people come more to borrow books and read than to study, so don't expect the quiet of a typical library. Outside, there's a lovely garden and picnic area with sea views. The Wi-Fi doesn't work, and the reception inside is unreliable. As for the books, they have a decent selection considering it's not overly large. I recommend a visit. In summer, it's only open in the mornings.

It's cozy and in a prime location, right on the beach.

Parking is easy, it's very quiet, and it has spacious tables for studying.

However, the Wi-Fi signal is either nonexistent or weak.

The established opening hours are not respected. You might find it closed at any time without a justified reason. :(

It's closed and there's no information about it (even though it appears open on the official website). What's more, they're doing it right in the middle of exam season, and to make matters worse, there are very few public libraries in the area.

They told me they're carrying out expansion work. Necessary and welcome (even if it's not the best time), but I still don't understand why it wasn't announced.
