Pointe de Pen-Hir & Tas de Pois
Pointe de Pen-Hir
The most spectacular headland on the Crozon Peninsula, with 70-meter cliffs jutting into the Atlantic and a line of sea-stack rocks called the 'Peas' in front.
Pointe de Pen-Hir lies southwest of Camaret. At the top of the cliffs stands a cross commemorating Breton soldiers who died in World War II. In front is the "Tas de Pois," a set of five sea stacks decreasing in size. The GR34 trail leads to the Veryac'h beach on the east side or to the Atlantic Wall bunkers on the west side. Winds can be strong, so keep away from the edge. It's about 65 km from Brest, roughly one hour's drive, and you can combine it with Camaret and Morgat in one day.
