Just a short detour from the coastal hiking trail that passes by, but worth a visit, just because of the view.

Built in 1844, the Craca Mill once served as a navigational landmark for the schooners and coastal vessels visiting the port of Paimpol. It was one of the 12 mills in the town of Plouézec, with one mill for every 300 inhabitants.
The Craca Mill is recognizable by its wingspan: 11 meters high, 6 meters in circumference, and with wings measuring 16.5 meters long and 2.7 meters wide, it is a small-foot, flat-bottomed mill, typical of the region.The mill is put back into operation on several occasions in July and August. Free, guided tours are offered during this time.
