The Northern shores of Finistère, sculpted by the whims of the Atlantic Ocean, present a grandiose appearance with their craggy cliffs, steeply-escarped islands, isolated rocks and magnificent beaches of white sand. This is a wild and constantly-changing landscape and offers myriad excursions whether as walks along the coast or by boat from Roscoff, Morlaix and Carentec.

Roscoff, a “city of character”, boasts handsome traditional architecture which makes it the seaside resort of choice. Across from the town, Batz Island is the perfect place to stop if you are looking for peace and quiet and bicycle excursions. The peninsular town of Carentec with its Château du Taureau, lighthouses and bird sanctuary is a charming place not to be missed on the way to Morlaix, “the town of the viaduct”, the veritable port of entry to the bay of the same name.
