This route allows you to discover several aspects of the Pointe de Beg Meil, a tourist hotspot since the second half of the 19th century: a coastal path that winds its way between beautiful private properties at the start, then opens up later on, passing through the countryside and residential areas via small roads and paths, the edge of the Mousterlin marsh and finally returning along the large beaches and the dune planted with conifers, the symbol of this point.

Behind the Mousterlin Dunes, the Mer Blanche is a small inland sea that fills up with each tide. The shallow depth of the sand on this foreshore gives the illusion that the sea takes on a whitish colour. It is a very popular spot for birds: waders, shelducks, egrets, herons...
