Is it Finistère? Where does the earth end and the ocean begin? The beauty of the mist of a Breton autumn taking shape in the distance and the waves sailing over the rocks crashing there. You can feel the freezing cold of an approaching winter.

Don't miss the sunset on this beach. For camper friends, just above there is an excellent equipped car park

Quite a good experience, for me, the bath would be ideal at high tide because of the relief of the beach. There's plenty to do there. I recommend.
