Discovery day in Erquy
Renowned for its cape, its famous fishing port, its fine sandy beaches and its pink sandstone cliffs, Erquy is a leading seaside resort in the Côtes-d’Armor. The small Breton village, known as the scallop capital, is a true haven of peace.
Between walks, sun, sea air and swimming, discover this paradise for hikers and all nature lovers.
Start your visit in the heart of the city: the fishing port. Here, life is punctuated by the activity around the scallop, which has become the local specialty. You can enjoy this shellfish around a good table, simply pan-fried or as a carpaccio.
Whether you are on foot or by bike, take the road to Cap d’Erquy, classified as a Grand Site de France. This protected natural area is an exceptional place with its 70-metre high cliffs, its dunes, its wild moors and its emerald sea. The spectacle is breathtaking!
You can then take the GR®34: a hiking trail that runs along the coast and admire the magnificent landscapes between cliffs, wild, colourful flora, sea and deserted beaches. Don’t forget to take a trip to the blue lakes, remains of the old pink sandstone quarries.
Why not also take a breath of sea air on one of the ten fine sand beaches lined with pine trees, from Saint-Michel beach to Caroual beach, and enjoy the sun?
From April to September, you can embark on a sea trip to the island of Bréhat.
