Cap Fréhel is located on the Emerald Coast. It rises 70 meters above the sea.

Next to the old lighthouse a brand new one was built. Going towards the end of the cape you will find the ancient horn of Mist.

The rock on the side is a seabird sanctuary. In the distance, Fort-la-Latte can be seen.

Cap Fréhel is one of the most stunning places on the Côte d'Emeraude. The 70 m high cliffs and islets are the natural habitat of many species of breeding birds. Heathland with heather and gorse, emerald green water and red, gray or black sandstone rocks provide a colorful backdrop to the bird sanctuary. In clear weather you can even see the Channel Islands in the distance.

The cliffs of Cap Fréhel are almost 100 m high in places and penetrate deep into the English Channel. They are constantly lashed by the sea wind and the waves, which often crash fiercely against the rocks. Yet legend has it that the Channel Islands were reachable on foot from the cape in a distant past. Although that story has long been consigned by scientists to the realm of fables, some still claim to see the remains of a cobbled road at low tide at the bottom of the Baie de la Frenaye!
