Beautiful tour largely on the coastal path (GR34), via Cap de la Chèvre, which overlooks the bay of Douarnenez.

Discover the bottom of Brest harbour via the Logonna-Daoulas coastal path. Please note: the coastal path between points (6) and (7) has collapsed (May 2025), so you will need to walk along the beach at low tide.

Even before it became a renowned seaside resort, Morgat was famous for its sea caves. Thanks to The Guardian, it has become even more famous, as it is said to be home to one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. As a result of this notoriety, this little gem is no longer accessible due to the overcrowding of the tiny and very steep path that leads to it. But you can still dream of relaxing there from the coastal path that connects the two sites. Between points 4 and 6, the path can be narrow and vertiginous. Not recommended for those who are afraid of heights. Latest information: changes have been made tothe GR® trail in the Pointe de St-Hernot area and between Porz Léon and the Calvary. Follow theGR® markings in the modified sections.
