Penvénan, Port-Blanc and Buguélès: the wild coastline of the Trégor

West of the Pink Granite Coast, the commune of Penvénan brings together several places worth discovering: the harbour of Port-Blanc, the Buguélès headland, its large sandy beaches and foreshore, and a chapel surrounded by standing stones.

Port-Blanc

Port-Blanc is a small harbour in the commune of Penvénan, facing the islands and the sea. The Dunes beach of Port-Blanc completes the walk.

Buguélès: walking on the foreshore

At Buguélès you can walk quite far out across the foreshore and pass the tide mill. The landscape is wild and the wildlife well preserved. Mind the tide: always check tide times before heading out onto the foreshore, and keep an eye on the incoming sea.

The Saint-Gonval chapel and the Tossen Keler

On the way to Penvénan, a small chapel is surrounded by stones set in a circle: this is the Saint-Gonval chapel, at the place called Pen Crec’h, where the Tossen Keler is also found.
