About

If you visit this spot at low tide, you will be able to see two types of rocks juxtaposed. The gneiss of Trébeurden is the older rock as it goes back more than two billion years. It is recognisable by its dark colour and jagged shape which contrasts with the pink granite, which is more rounded and much newer. ​In the distance, you can make out the Sept-Îles archipelago which today is home to a nature and bird reserve.
