  The coast here is jagged, and Castel-Meur is home to a famous collection of rocks where the wind howls through and the waves crash with abandon. It certainly makes an impression! A stretch of pebbles connects this rocky spot to the mainland. One of its most surprising and much-photographed sights is the tiny cottage (a private home) wedged between the rocks.
  Next, the coast cuts inland with the River Jaudy, where you’ll find Tréguier the ‘little town of character’ with timbered houses from the 15th and 16th centuries, a harbour and a lively market on Wednesday mornings. Heritage fans will appreciate the gothic cathedral with its 15th century cloisters, especially on the 3rd Sunday in May when they celebrate St Yves’ day with French bagpipes and organ.
  This ‘sillon’ is a smile of sand and pebbles. A geological smile sitting in the sea. The Sillon de Talbert in the Côtes d’Armor is a curious, natural path of pebbles leading 3km out into the sea. It’s a fragile natural phenomenon that could disappear. Nearby, there’s the CEVA, where professionals study and promote one of Brittany’s natural treasures: seaweed.
