💡 Tips

  • Use the "P'tit Bac" pedestrian ferry for a quick and scenic 5-minute crossing to nearby Loctudy.
  • Stroll through the narrow Rue des Dentellières to see the historic lace-makers' cottages.
  • Look for the tiny house at 8 Rue de la Poste, reputedly the smallest on the peninsula.
  • Check the tide times; the long sandy Plage du Sillon changes its appearance dramatically with the water.
