Pointe du Grouin
A granite headland north of Cancale, where wild moorland and cliffs reach into the sea, one of the most spectacular viewpoints on the Emerald Coast path.
Pointe du Grouin rises about 40 metres and is covered in heathland vegetation. Directly ahead lies Lande Island, a seabird reserve. On clear days you can see the Chausey archipelago and, in the distance, Mont-Saint-Michel.
The GR34 coastal path passes here, and it is about a 7 km walk south to Cancale. The headland is windy, and the cliff edges have no railings, so take care. Entry is free, and there is a car park.
