Côte Sauvage de Quiberon - Incredible beaches and a spectacular rock arch | Northern France Part 18

We are in Brittany on the Quiberon Peninsula. Today we take a hike along the west side of the peninsula, the so-called wild coast (Côte Sauvage). Our starting point is the village of Kerhostin, which can be easily reached by train in summer. The destination of the hike is the town of Quiberon at the southern tip of the peninsula. At Kerhostin at the beginning of the peninsula is Fort Penthièvre, which was built in the 18th century to protect the peninsula from enemy attacks. It is still used militarily today. Our hiking trail runs above the rocky and rugged coast, which is repeatedly interrupted by small bays. We quickly reach Portivy, a charming village with a small fishing port. It's low tide and the fishing boats are out of water. Next to it there is also a small beach, where sand and rocks alternate. We continue on the trail that takes us along the wild coast for several kilometers. Again and again, magnificent views open up to us, such as at the Pointe Beg-An-Aud headland and the Pointe du Percho. From high above we look down on the rocks of the coast sculpted by wind and waves. The unbridled power of the Atlantic shaped this landscape, the impressive surf conveys something of this force to us. From the Pointe du Percho we already have a beautiful view of the highlight of this hike, namely the beach "Plage de Port Blanc" with the famous rock arch "L'Arche de Port Blanc", also called "Roche Percée". This sandy beach is now very wide at low tide and the water is gone again. We can walk along the rocks below for a long time. People spread out on the extensive beach, despite the high season, everyone finds their place. The rock arch offers a fantastic panorama, especially the view through the arch to the sea is unique. From the mussel banks that we see on the rocks, we can conclude that the scenery is completely different at high tide: Then the beach has largely disappeared and the rock arch is also washed by the surf, which has its own charm. We leave this beautiful place and continue walking along the coast. The path leads us back up to the rocks with wonderful panoramas of beaches and wild rocky coves. Swimming in these bays can be very dangerous due to the waves and currents and is therefore prohibited in some places. But many tourists are not impressed by this. It's easy for us not to jump into the water. The beaches are really fantastic, but the water is just too cold for us! Finally we reach the outskirts of the town of Quiberon and pass the pretty seafront Château Turpault. Passing the port and the wide beach of Quiberon, we come to the center of Quiberon and look now for a créperie for dinner to reward ourselves for the long hike The hiking trail along the Cote Sauvage can be found in Komoot: https://www.komoot.de/tour/1096076854 Next week we will explore the city of Quiberon and make another trip to Vannes.
