There are a lot of beach like The Minou beach, The St-Anne beach or The Dellec … And also, different types of beach: pebble or sand. For example, the Dellec is a pebble beach and the Minou beach is sandy. Our favourites are The Dellec because we can see the forest, cliffs, boats, there isn’t a lot of waves and because there isn’t a lot of wind and St Anne beach because at sunset, it’s really beautiful and because it mixes pebble and sand. In summer, the
temperature is cold.
