Utterly charming little ports, like oyster-farming La Roche Jaune, or Port-Blanc, the latter with white-painted rocks to help sailors steer safely into harbour, make the most of the protected corners along this coast. However, extraordinary rocks pile up all around, on land as well as out to sea. At the very northern tip of the peninsula, known either as Castel Meur or the Pointe du Château, one of the most picturesque houses in Brittany stands sensationally sandwiched between two vast boulders. The Maison du Littoral nearby explains the extraordinary rocky environment.
