An exceptional natural heritage

Amazing scenery

The ever-changing views of the “Grand Site” will enthral you – real post-card views with white sands and clear waters. Its mosaic of coastal landscapes has inspired many artists in the past, and continues to do so today – the rocky headlands with vertiginous views alternate with a multitude of sandy coves with the turquoise waters of the Emerald Coast. And there are unique geological features, such as the local pink sandstone.

A wide range of natural environments

The importance of the wide range of coastal environments of the “Grand Site Cap d’Erquy-Cap Frehel” is recognised at national and European level. You can explore wide stretches of coastal gorse and heather moorlands, marshy estuaries, extensive dunes, towering cliffs up to 70 metres high, and numerous bogs and valleys.
