The Pink Granite Coast is a world apart.
The usual Breton landscapes disappear to give way to a symphony of colours. Unusual in these regions, they have made the reputation of this piece of land between Perros-Guirred and the Batz Island.
As the early as the beginning of the XIX century, many flamboyant mansions have been decorating this coast. As so, from the Trégastel or the Trébeurden beaches you can enjoy panoramic views of the Archipel-des-Sept-Iles (“Seven islands archipelago”) or of the Lannion bay.
The Pink Granite Coast, is also a natural reserve with an incredible biodiversity. The nearby rough rocks off the coast from Trébeurden or Millau Island are a good example. At sea, off Trébeurden, the first bird clinic was opened in order to save sea birds from oil slicks.
Is it luck or coincidence ? Writers spurred by an ideal about nature, often put down their luggage on the coast. Joseph Conrad lived many years on Ile Grande . Nature and “Celtic nationalism” are sung by The Scottish poet Kenneth White who lives not far from Sainte Anne de Trégastel.
Impossible to speak about the Pink Granite Coast without mentioning the chaos of the rocks. To watch them you only need to wander on the custom's trail from the Men Ruz lighthouse to the tip of Ploumanac’h.
