Isthmus of Penthièvre

Highlight • Natural

It is a strip of land, about twenty meters wide, which connects the Quiberon peninsula to the continent.
On these few meters a road, a railway line and the cycle path coexist.
You can also enjoy the beaches that border the isthmus.

Port Haliguen

Highlight • Viewpoint

Since 1769, the residents of Port-Haliguen have been trying to rebuild the harbor to better protect their fishing boats. It was finally rebuilt and expanded in 1848 according to plans by the engineer Pichot. Convicts sentenced to forced labor had to do the construction work.

Nice tour around the peninsula. Little shade. Refreshments at the southern tip of the island. Parking right at the start of the peninsula on the right
