Coin-du-Banc Beach
Plage de Coin-du-Banc
A long sandy beach north of Percé, with red cliffs and waves, quiet enough for walking, watching the sunrise and beachcombing.
Plage de Coin-du-Banc lies about 8 km north of Percé, with a gravel and sand beach several kilometres long, backed by red sandstone cliffs and farmland. The open views include a distant look at Perce Rock. In summer it is far quieter than the town centre, making it good for walking, collecting stones and picnicking, though the sea stays cool even in midsummer. It is reached by driving along Route 132, with small roadside parking spots, and there are a few guesthouses and cafés nearby.
