There's a restaurant here called "Pointe du Grouin."
The actual Pointe du Grouin is a few hundred meters further north. The view is good from here.
The wave-battered diamond-shaped island of Île des Landes—1.1 km long, narrow, and uninhabited—is home to hundreds of gulls and other seabirds. From the Pointe du Grouin, it lies directly east, but because it's a bird sanctuary, the small island cannot be visited, even though it's tantalizingly close.

Mont Saint Michel is visible very small on the horizon.

It is really worth the detour because we have a complete view of the bay of Mont Saint Michel.
