Best Hidden Gems: Ploumanac’h – Brittany – France

Ploumanac’h is a town in the commune of Perros-Guirec, in the Brittany region of the Côtes-d’Armor department in the west of France.  The Pink Granite Coast, so-called because of the colour of its rocks, is one of the most beautiful stretches of Brittany’s coastline. The area is renowned for its unusual rock formations, the best of which can be found on the coastal path between Perros-Guirec and the port of Ploumanac’h.

Perros-Guirec itself is one of Brittany’s most popular resorts with families, primarily because of its three sandy beaches where you’ll find kids’ clubs and water sports in high season. In Ploumanac’h, once you’ve taken a walk around the natural harbour and had a look at the tidal mill, relax a while on St Guirec beach and admire the 19th-century Château de Costaérès, star of many postcards and now owned by a German celebrity.
