View of Île Callot

Highlight • Viewpoint

Accessible at low tide by a submersible road, the island seems to float on the turquoise water, surrounded by fine sandy beaches and rocks. From the coast, the panorama offers a magnificent view of this small Breton island, with its traditional houses and unspoiled nature. The shades of blue of the sea, contrasting with the surrounding vegetation and cliffs, create a peaceful and enchanting landscape.

Île Callot

Highlight • Beach

Callot Island, accessible from this roundabout at low tide, is a long outcropping of land surrounded by water. Preserved, it is appreciated by fishermen and walkers.

Hikers, be vigilant about tide times if you do not want to find yourself stuck on the island. Signs at the entrance to the passage indicate the above-mentioned times.
