    Tips

    October 9, 2023

    On the rocks of Plounéour-Brignogan-Plages, stands a lighthouse more than 150 years old: the Pontusval lighthouse. The Pontusval lighthouse was lit for the first time on September 15, 1869. Its construction was intended to serve as a relay between the lighthouse of the Île Virginie and that of the Île de Batz, on this rocky coast where shipwrecks were, unfortunately, numerous. If the purpose of lighthouses was above all maritime security, some like that of Pontusval served as a base for the German army during the Second World War.

        Right next to the lighthouse are some big rocks between which you can go through (right also goes). On the other side you have a beautiful and undisturbed view of the sea (or rock, depending on the tide).
