During the winter months, this beach is a great spot to visit as it's mostly empty and dogs are allowed. The view is fantastic and there's even a windsurfing area with impressive waves. It's only a 15-minute stroll into the city and there are some great restaurants nearby.

This beach is simply lovely and the view is absolutely stunning. There's a lifeguard on duty and nearby toilets that are always clean. It's usually deserted except for a few locals.

If you happen to be around Audierne, this beach is decent enough. But if you're willing to drive for 20 or 30 minutes, there are definitely better beaches to be found.

The beach is stunning and well-maintained, never overcrowded. It has convenient changing rooms, toilets, and even a shower. However, the water drops off sharply, making it unsuitable for young children under the age of 5.
