Plougonvelin

Highlight • Other

With its long beach of fine sand, its turquoise waters and its opulent residences, Plougonvelin almost seems to be a town out of time. Ideally located on the GR 34 (customs trail), it is an interesting stopover for those who want to eat or spend the night there. There are many amenities there, from accommodation to catering to leisure activities.

Ruins of Saint-Mathieu Abbey

Highlight • Historical Site

The ruins of the abbey facing the sea give the place a special atmosphere. Abandoned after the Revolution, it contrasts with the lighthouse and its technological equipment right next to it.
