At the southern tip of Bretagne, on the Cornouaille coast, the Bigouden land stretches from Saint-Marine to the Odet river. Though the word can often be misused, it is not the case here, the Bigouden land is genuine Breton land.

Beaches follow fishing ports from La Pointe du Raz to Pont-Aven.  At La Pointe du Raz, a magnificent scenery is displayed over the Baie des Trépassés (“Bay of the Deceased”) and the island of Sein.
Before leaving Le Cap de Sizun  (“Sizun Head”), you must visit Audierne and its bay. The lovers of long fine sand beaches will be pleased. Further south, towards the Pointe de la Torche (“Torch Tip”) the coast is wilder, and here is the utmost meeting place of the funboarders. Nearby, the giant lighthouse of Eckmühl watches the seas on the Penmarc’h tip.

After the beaches and the sailing ports, you will find a succession of fishing ports : Saint Guénolé, Lesconil, Loctudy. As the first local handicraft port of France, Le Guilvinec offers day after day, the colourful and lively show of its trawlers coming back laden with lobsters, eels, hakes under the seagulls’ watchful eyes. Don’t miss the charming port of Sainte-Marine nor the tiny alleys bordered with white houses of the Island of Tudy.

It is the Odet river which divides the Bigouden from the Odet land. From the sea resort of Bénodet, you will notice at sea,  the Glénan archipelago that looks like a tropical atoll (unusual sight under this latitudes !). The very many arms of the sea (or rias as they are known in this area) are typical of this coast.
The fortified and Art-and-History town of Concarneau and Pont-Aven the delightful painters’ town  have forged their identity in their military and artistic past.
Riec-sur-Belon, famous for its flat oisters, Clohars-Carnoët or Moëlan-sur-Mer, starting points of many rambles -on land or sea- are among the many  places to be discovered.
