Nestled in the northwest corner of France, our region, Brittany, enchants visitors. If you're looking for your next weekend away for two, your next family vacation, or simply your next destination, a trip to Brittany is definitely a choice to consider. We're going to share with you some of the reasons why, in our opinion, a trip to Brittany, on the Pink Granite Coast, is an unforgettable experience.

The Pink Granite Coast in Brittany

Our region is made up of four departments: Finistère, Ille-et-Vilaine, Morbihan and Côtes d'Armor, home to the Côte de Granit Rose, one of the most beautiful and famous parts of Brittany. The Côte de Granit Rose stretches for around 30 kilometers and is famous for its spectacular rock formations and fine sandy beaches, all bathed in a unique pink light at sunrise and sunset.

Trébeurden: A jewel of the Pink Granite Coast

Your stay in Trébeurden, located in the heart of the Pink Granite Coast, promises unforgettable moments. Trébeurden is a charming coastal village that combines traditional Breton charm with breathtaking natural beauty. It's an ideal place for those looking to relax while exploring the surrounding nature.

Breathtaking landscapes

The Pink Granite Coast is truly a paradise for nature lovers and photographers. The coastal paths offer breathtaking views of the pink granite rock formations, sculpted by millennia of erosion. The Sentier des Douaniers (GR34), a coastal path that runs from Mont-Saint-Michel to Saint-Nazaire, offers a variety of landscapes, secluded coves and imposing cliffs, offering a range of sensations... At Maison Trébeurden, some of our guests who take the customs path from Trébeurden along the Pink Granite Coast to Plougasnou share their impressions on their return. Here are a few of their words: “What a panorama!”, “You feel so small in the heart of this unspoilt nature”, “A feeling of freedom and letting go”.

In Trébeurden, the beach at Tresmeur is a must-see. With its calm waters and fine sand, it's the perfect place for swimming and water sports. Scuba diving enthusiasts will also be delighted by the rich fauna and flora.

Explore the Islands

From Trébeurden, it's easy to explore the surrounding islands. Ile Milliau, accessible on foot at low tide, offers hiking trails through wild landscapes and breathtaking panoramas. Visitors can also explore Ile Grande, another of the region's jewels, or the 7-island archipelago, France's largest bird sanctuary, which you can discover on a cruise. Young and old alike will be delighted!

History and Culture

The Pink Granite Coast is rich in history and culture. Menhirs and dolmens, relics of the Neolithic era, dot the landscape and tell of the region's ancient history. The Château de Costaérès, for example, located on an islet near Ploumanac'h, is a historical landmark that adds mystery and romance to the coast, especially as it was the face to live for famous people.

Many of the villages on the Côte de Granit Rose, such as Perros-Guirec, are well worth a visit. Stone houses, historic chapels and picturesque harbors offer an authentic glimpse of Breton life.

Culinary delights

On a trip to Brittany, gastronomy as a special place. The Côte de Granit Rose is no exception, offering a variety of culinary delights that you will enjoy. Seafood, especially oysters, mussels and crabs, are local specialties not to be missed.

In Trébeurden, you'll find restaurants serving traditional Breton dishes such as crêpes and galettes, often accompanied by Breton cider. Also kouign-amann, a pastry rich in butter, and far breton, a flan with prunes, are a must.

At La Maison Trébeurden, you'll always find homemade local specialties, not only on the breakfast buffet, but also on every menu in the lounge (snacks and aperitifs) and in the restaurant (open every evening except Monday).

As you can see, a trip to Brittany, and in particular to the Pink Granite Coast, is a rich and unforgettable experience, not to mention a warm and authentic welcome. Whether you're a nature lover, a history enthusiast or a gourmet, Trébeurden and the surrounding area will please you.
