Tips from the Community
In this case, you'd first drive there, then return via the GR34, which offers great views, and then cycle back to the car. This is at least convenient for the climb from the parking lot.

A very beautiful monastery ruin. All descriptions of the individual sights are multilingual, so you can get by very well even without sufficient knowledge of French.

Bonaparte Beach, named after the code name given to this historic site during World War II, is also known as Anse Cochat. It has the unique feature of being accessible via a tunnel carved into the rock. From this stretch of beach, now known as "Plage Bonaparte," members of the French Resistance smuggled 135 English and Canadian pilots—including Jane Birkin's father—whose planes were shot down to England during World War II, past the Nazis. Commemorative plaques in the tunnel still bear witness to these events.

Despite its small size, the town of Bréhec has many shops. Isolated from the large crowds of Paimpol or Saint-Brieuc, it constitutes a first choice refuge for itinerants who walk the GR 34 (customs officers' path). As the equinoxes approach, the ocean recedes into the distance and reveals a large and languorous beach. Don’t be surprised by the onlookers who go there armed with a rake. They came for sand lance, a fried food very popular in the region.

In the bay of Paimpol, Beauport Abbey is a remarkable monastic complex, a major witness to religious architecture in Brittany. It is also an exemplary place of conservation, where the interests of the monument combine with those of an exceptional natural site. At the dawn of the 13th century, Count Alain de Goëlo founded the Beauport Abbey and installed canons of the Premonstratensian order there. For 500 years, the religious community shaped the place and implemented important developments, while respecting their monastic rules and the needs of their community life. Closed during the French Revolution, then sold as national property, the abbey buildings were in turn transformed into a stable, town hall, bourgeois apartments, school and cider house.
