Camaret-sur-Mer

In the far west of the Crozon peninsula, the commune of Camaret-sur-Mer boasts a range of three rocky points:

- To the north is the Pointe du Grand Gouin, which shelters the port from the Noroît gales.
- To the west is the Pointe du Toulinguet, an ideal lookout point for the semaphore built at its end.
- To the south, the pointe de Pen-Hir, a major listed natural site, is extended out to sea by the Tas de Pois.

Rocky cliffs, dunes and fine sandy beaches alternate along the 25 kilometres of coastline.

The pointe de Pen-Hir, extended out to sea by the "Tas de Pois", is without doubt the best-known image of the Crozon peninsula. Its high cliffs, sheltering small coves, attract a large number of visitors. From here, you can see the whole of the Iroise Sea, from the Pointe du Raz to the Pointe Saint-Mathieu. On a clear day, you can make out the islands of Sein, Ouessant and Molène, and the panorama is superb. In the evening, the sunsets are splendid, and at night the spectacle continues with the ballet of the luminous brushes of the lighthouses that line the coast.
