Plage des Sables Blancs
The most popular beach north-west of Concarneau, with fine white sand facing the bay and lifeguards in summer.
Plage des Sables Blancs lies about 2 km northwest of the town centre. This curved beach has shallow water and gentle waves, and it faces Fouesnant Bay. In summer there are lifeguards, canoe and paddleboard rentals, and restaurants and cafés along the shore. From here the GR34 coastal path runs north to Cornouaille Beach, and south back to the walled town. Entry is free. Parking spaces are tight in peak season, so you may prefer the city bus.
