This beach in Brittany is absolutely stunning! The sand is a beautiful golden color and stretches out for quite a distance. You'll find plenty of shells scattered along the shore and the beach itself is quite spacious.

We visited a beautiful beach in May, and it wasn't crowded at all during that time. The sand was golden and added to the overall charm of the place.
