  • Unsupervised beach
Rue de Men Meur, 29730 Guilvinec

Description

The commune of Guilvinec boasts 920 metres of beaches, all ideally situated and featuring beautiful white sand. They are not lifeguard-supervised. The small, secluded 120-metre beach at La Grève Jaune faces due south and offers a view of the harbour entrance and the arrival of the trawlers every day of the week at around 4.30 pm. Showers are available there in July and August. The rocky area exposed at low tide is very popular with children. It is just 200 metres from the harbour. Nearest bus stops, 750 metres away: Jean Baudry (summer) or Place de la Petite Sole (winter) Another way to enjoy the beaches and dunes is to walk along the dune ridge via the GR34, the legendary ‘sentier des douaniers’ (customs officers’ path). It is also a very popular spot for running. Recommendations: - The dunes and coastal vegetation are very fragile! Help to preserve them by using only the paths designated for walking. Please do not climb over the wooden fences. - For your safety, the walking trails are for pedestrians only. Cycle routes have been set up for cyclists. - No, the beaches aren’t dirty! The seaweed on the shore is not rubbish but a natural by-product of a living ocean. It’s a rich environment that promotes biodiversity. - Yes, even in Brittany the sun can cause you a few problems! Protect your skin with broad-spectrum sun cream, avoid exposure between 12 noon and 3 pm, and wear sunglasses! - Shore fishing is a leisure activity that should not be undertaken without taking a few precautions! Watch out for the tide, which can catch you out, even if you’re an experienced beachcomber! To ensure this special experience remains a pleasure, make sure you check the tide times and don’t set off without your mobile phone! If possible, let someone staying on dry land know about your outing. Also, check with the tourist office about the minimum catch sizes to be observed and any temporary bans. Your catch must remain alive until it is cooked or eaten. Dogs: Following a local by-law, dogs are permitted on the town’s beaches (on a lead): - From 1 May to 30 September: from 8 pm to 10 am - From 1 October to 30 April: no time restrictions
