This was another day of tracing endless bays and inlets. These are so extensive I had pretty much convinced myself that the French Atlantic shoreline (especially in the Bretagne) had to be longer than the US Pacific coastline. So i asked ai. Turns out i am wrong, very wrong. Even including all the inlets

This felt like more than 44 miles or70km. I walked quite a bit at these various coastal points, and I also stood still a lot to take pictures.
This was again a day of high clouds that filter the light, that can make for magical light conditions in photos. It seems to me this strange spider like peninsula

The shore has changed. It' steeper, it's rockier, there are fewer people. It feels better. The bike route signs don't say anything about the Velo Maritime anymore. But there are still plenty of signed bike routes.
The day started out cloudy, and I was debating with myself weather to take the day off from

this is my favorite part of the Velomaritime (not counting the long stretch on both sides of Mont Saint Michel) in Bretagne so far. Great open cycling directly on the coast, that is easier to follow than the million turn offs per km on the days before, The only place where i opted for the road instead

apparently virtually impossible to follow the coast closely here without a mountain bike. But the few out and backs lead to beautiful unspoiled locations with views onto the rocky coastline from small harbors.

I lost the Velomaritime several times today, because of signed (?) detours that were hard to follow. The result was some stretches with heavy traffic through a maze of houses, and a few isolated idyllic spots on the coast. - Saint Brieux has a lot of mural art and an interesting harbor (with more murals) in a deep valley

Startiing after the inital vacation housing villages near the starting point, the coast becomes a submerged coastline with ridiculously numerous bays and small beaches below the eroded cliffs. The Velomaritime (this section signed as the route des falaises) tries to follow this circuitous path meticulously

one last time cycling for seascapes before the time has come to head back east. The long spit of land that is Quiberon consists of two parts. On the west side , on the cote sauvage (wild coast) the shoreline is kept undeveloped. The east side and the spit are one continuous developed village with different names.
