Plage de Pen Hat, a highlight near Camaret sur mer. At low tide it is a huge, wide, firm sandy beach and at high tide it is a hotspot for surfers. If you are lucky enough to be here at Gande Maree, you can also get into caves on the cliffs at the extreme low tide, which are inaccessible the rest of the year. Above the beach, at the Manoir Saint Pol Roux, the ruins of a former manor house, you have an incomparable view of the bay and in the evening, if the weather is right, it is the spot for some great sunset photos.
