The Pointe du Raz semaphore is a former lighthouse whose original building dates back to 1838. It was not until 1892 that it was transformed into a semaphore. This communication station with ships passing between the bays of Audierne and Douarnenez is also an important weather station.

Pointe du Raz

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here, Finistère fully justifies its name: the end of the land is celebrated in a parade of capes and promontories that brave the open sea. Classified as a “Grand site de France”, the Pointe du Raz rises to some 70 meters in height. Sculpted by the ocean and the winds, it alone is worth the trip to the region. Opposite it, the square lighthouse of the islet of La Vieille, lit in 1887, was automated in 1995. Beyond the untamed rocks and the emerald sea, the panorama over the open sea allows you to admire the island of Sein and on a clear day the Ar Men lighthouse.

After visiting Douarnenez, we drove by car🚙to the beach in Plogoff - not for swimming, but along the coastal path 🛘🌊to the Point de Raz!
Started in good spirits, with the sun☀️at our backs and wind in our faces, after a short time we encountered black clouds and a thunderstorm warning⛈️: so we aborted🚫and returned through tall, wet ferns.

Even if there are a few more visitors than in other parts of Brittany, the Pointe de Raz is something special. We start at the Baie des Trepasses and climb up the GR34 to the Pointe with a beautiful view of P. Van.
