The beach is located in a great spot and only a short walk downhill. It takes about 40 minutes to walk from Concarneau along the coast, which is quite pleasant. However, we were disappointed that the pool and one of the toilet blocks were closed during our visit. Despite that, the site was perfectly pleasant and the staff was very welcoming. They all spoke very good English.

The small cove boasts of stunning turquoise water and a white sandy beach where dogs are allowed.

Ideal for a family or group gathering, though be aware that there are no restroom facilities or bars available. Access to the sandy beach requires a walk down a dead-end road followed by a footpath, and the beach itself is flanked by rocks covered in oysters and mussels. Bring along a picnic basket, some beach games, and a good book for a pleasant and tranquil day, and remember to take any trash with you when you leave.
