Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Plage du Bois du Kador (Finistere) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Plage du Bois du Kador (Finistere) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Plage du Bois du Kador for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

This beach is absolutely stunning. I was pleasantly surprised by the breathtaking scenery in Brittany. It reminds me of Six Fours! Just a word of caution, the GR trail can be quite steep and slippery, similar to challenging mountain hikes. I noticed quite a few people wearing sandals, so be careful.

This is a great walk, but it's not recommended for novice hikers or families with young kids due to the presence of cliffs. The trail is quite steep for a minimum of 3 kilometers.
