This beach is absolutely stunning and perfect for those who enjoy long walks, jogs, or bringing their furry friends along for a run. It's important to note that dogs must be kept on a leash, which is understandable given the number of people that frequent the area. Additionally, the Fort Penthièvre is definitely worth checking out if you have the chance. This beach is also an ideal destination for surfers and fishermen alike, with fantastic waves and plenty of fish to be caught. While it's a great spot for all ages, I did have to deduct a star due to the lack of cleanliness.

The sea is crystal clear and there are no pesky flies or jellyfish to worry about. It's absolutely stunning.

The beach is stunning and quite spacious. However, instead of shells, there are plenty of pebbles.

Located among the Quiberon's many beaches, this particular one boasts a stunning view with strong winds and large waves that are typical of the area. It's the perfect spot for those who enjoy sea sports. Additionally, there's a fascinating purple house situated near the beach.
