This sleepy town serves as a charming portal to some of the region’s finest coastline.

Stroll along rugged clifftop paths and sun yourself on golden beaches just minutes from the center of Plouescat. Dine on sumptuous crêpes and fresh seafood while you experience the laid-back Breton way of life.

Wander along the quiet rural lanes that crisscross through the town and gaze over the endless spread of lush green countryside that spreads out in every direction. Pass the morning at a local bistro with a coffee and croissant or treat yourself to a sugar-dusted crepe.

With the sound of waves crashing in the distance, take a 20-minute drive west to the small seaside commune of Brignogan Plages. At the end of a beautiful headland, enjoy the access to an abundance of pretty bays and hiking paths.

Watch boats sail and fish in the safety of the vast natural harbor or swim in the clear, sheltered waters. The long, sandy bay of Plage de Ménéham meanwhile offers opportunities to soak yourself in the blue Atlantic waters and surf the powerful ocean swells. After a refreshing plunge, relax in the sun and marvel at the peculiar rock formations that poke their heads above the waterline. Visit the Village de Ménéham to see the thatch-covered buildings and browse shops.

With the sun beginning to fall over the horizon, find a table at one of the various seafood restaurants in the area. Eat fish just out of the net or try a bowl of classically cooked French mussels.

Plouescat is located in Brittany in northwest France. It is an hour’s drive north of the regional capital of Quimper and 5 hours west of Paris. Stay at one of several small hotels and guesthouses or at one of the campsites on the coast.

Discover this serene traditional town just minutes from glorious beaches and superb food.
