    Hiking

    A few meters from the Goulet de Brest, the Petit Minou lighthouse lights the ocean to show the way to sailors. 26 meters high, it is 34 meters above sea level. Lit since 1848, it illuminates up to
    19 miles (35 kilometers).

    From the end of the point on which the lighthouse stands, the panorama is unmistakable. It is open to the public during high season.
