This hike is located on the north coast, sheltered from the wind, where beautiful beaches, flower-filled meadows and charming little harbours follow one another.

Set off from the lovely port of Sauzon and follow the coastal path to the picture-postcard Phare des Poulains, then, via the bird sanctuary, to the Grotte de l’Apothicaire. Stunning scenery all along the coastal path.
