On the ocean side, it is forbidden to bathe on the beaches of the Côte Sauvage because of the groundwell wave phenomenon, powerful invisible waves that arise near the shore and pull swimmers out at sea.

La Côte Sauvage is a remarkable natural site of Brittany, it can be explored along a 8 kilometre long coastal path which allows you to admire its beaches, cliffs and natural caves.

The beaches of the dune cord that connects the peninsula to Erdeven are huge and appreciated by board sports fans.

The Tire-Bouchon : a tourist train to go to Quiberon

In summer, access to the Quiberon peninsula is very difficult: to come to the beaches of Quiberon for the day, it is not advised to go by car (especially during the weekend).

We advise you to use the "Tire-Bouchon" (a small train linking Auray to Quiberon that stops in the different stations of the peninsula, along the sea).
