General presentation
Pointe du Raz and Cap Sizun
Falaise, exposed capes, Trépassés Bay, harbours, coastal trails and powerful Atlantic landscapes.
The discovery of Pointe du Raz and Cap Sizun revolves around Pointe du Raz, Baie des Trépassés and Audierne. The stay thus alternates between the coastline, natural areas and the countryside, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: frequent wind. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Viewpoint
Point of the Raz
The Pointe du Raz It is best understood by multiplying the short points of view: forward, backward, distant, close-looking. The place is remembered in this oscillation between force and silence.
Coast
Baie des Trépassés
The bay of the Trépassés is a space of horizontal lines and open horizons where the wind plays a role as a director. Slow wandering reveals successive effects on water colour and banks. The most beautiful moment is often the one where the one really stops, without device.
City
Audierne
Audierne lives around its port, its docks and the mouth of the Goyen, with the sea always close without crushing the city. The terraces, the boats and the streets that go up to the houses make a gentle step before the more exposed landscapes of Cape Sizun.
