Île-Tudy has 1.5 km of fine sandy beaches facing south.
The 1 km long Sillon beach is ideal for families and water sports.
You can go water-walking, kayaking, elliptical paddling, classic paddling, etc. The nautical centre is just behind the beach.
It is easy to get to and has a car park and a dune area sheltered by tall pine trees, with games and picnic tables (west side: 400m from Place de la Cale: restaurants, cafés, shops). Nearest bus stop: 5 Avenue de Bretagne (400m)
Supervised beach: from 01/07 to 31/08 (1pm to 7pm) by two lifeguards.
👩🏽🦽➡️ PRM: Tiralo available in July and August during lifeguard station opening hours on 06 75 43 85 01. Toilets for PRMs
Another way to enjoy the beaches and dunes is to walk along the dunes along the GR34, the legendary customs path. Running is also very popular.
Recommendations:
- The dunes and maritime vegetation are very fragile! Help to preserve them by using only the paths designated for the walk. Please do not cross the ganivelles.
- For your safety, the footpaths are for pedestrians only. There are cycle routes for cyclists.
- No, the beaches aren't dirty! Seaweed is not waste, but the natural waste product of a living ocean. It's a rich environment that encourages biodiversity.
- Yes, even in Brittany the sun can cause you a few problems! Protect your skin with sunscreen, avoid exposure between 12pm and 3pm and wear sunglasses!
- Fishing on foot is a highly recommended pastime! But beware of the tide, which can take you by surprise, even if you're a regular! To ensure that this special moment remains a pleasure, be sure to check the tide times and don't leave without your mobile phone! If possible, let someone on land know about your trip. Also, ask at the tourist office about catch sizes and any temporary bans. The fruit of your catch must remain alive until cooked/tasted.
🐶 Dogs welcome
Following a municipal decree, dogs are prohibited on the beach from 1 May to 30 September to protect wildlife and for health reasons.
Outside this period, they must always be kept on a lead.
