The Pointe d'Erquy is a striking headland on the north coast, characterized by pink sandstone cliffs, open heathland, and low coastal shrubs. From the cliffs, sweeping views of the sea, offshore cliffs, and bays open up. It lies within the Cap d'Erquy - Cap Fréhel Nature Reserve and provides a habitat for seabirds and protected flora. This section is part of the GR34 coastal path and is particularly scenic at low tide, when rocky islands and tidal pools become visible.

Hiking

A walk around the Cap d'Erquy allows you to discover its cliffs and pink sandstone rocks, its wild beaches, and its breathtaking viewpoints over the sea like here at the tip of Erquy. To experience an unforgettable moment, come at the end of the day to admire the sunset above the sparkling sea.
