Plage du Guen is part of the protected landscape surrounding Cap d'Erquy. Nestled between gently rolling heathland slopes, this unspoiled beach reveals its tranquil, pristine side. Fine, pale sand and the changing colors of the sea dominate the landscape, while heather, broom, and pine trees grow in the hinterland. At low tide, rocks and small tidal pools emerge, and the expansive view across the bay extends all the way to Cap Fréhel. Since the beach is only accessible via narrow paths and lacks any tourist infrastructure, it remains a quiet spot—ideal for hikes, nature observation, and moments of tranquility by the sea.

Quite nice here 😉 At least for a little picnic and break, as the coastal path is quite challenging.

As you walk through the Salines marsh, you'll cross a charming little wooden bridge. This passage allows you to cross the lagoon formed by the Islet and offers breathtaking views of this ecosystem rich in flora and fauna.

Ruins of a historic mill that was fed by the Ru de Matignon. The mill is not only a popular hiking destination, but can also be easily incorporated into a mountain bike tour. The trails along the Ru de Matignon or from La Forge are absolutely worthwhile.
