Made famous by the writings of Pierre Lotti (Icelandic Fisherman published in 1886), Paimpol is a vast fishing port mixed with the idleness of a pretty marina. In the center of the town, houses dating from the 16th century remain and bring a beautiful character to the town.

Ideally located on the customs path (GR 34), the town has numerous shops and services capable of satisfying all budgets. A railway station is served daily by trains from Guingamp.

Tourony Beach

Highlight • Beach

Plage de Tourony is a wonderful little beach that looks out across the numerous rocky islets in the Trégastel bay. With sand and rocks, it's rather picturesque and a great place to stop for a picnic. The Eurovelo 4 passes right by, so you won't miss it.

view of Costaérès Island and Castle

Highlight • Castle

The term chateau is overused, it is in fact a large neo-medieval style manor house characteristic of the large resort houses of the late 19th century on the pink granite coast. The building, with a complex massing resulting from several extensions, is made of pink granite from the quarries of La Clarté, Perros-Guirec district. The roof is slate. Its interior was designed with reclaimed wood from a three-master beached in winter 1896, the Mauritius.
This was built on an islet bought by Bruno Abakanowicz (also called Bruno Abdank, who built a little later around 1896 the Hôtel Bellevue in Ploumanac'h), engineer and mathematician of Polish origin at the end of the century. summer 1892 to the customs officer René Le Brozec, a Perrosien who cultivated potatoes there and dried lichen and fish. The transaction at the time was 0.25 francs per square meter. It was completed around 1896 by the engineer Lanmoniez and the Lannionnais entrepreneur Pierre Le Tensorer. After her death in 1900, her daughter, Sofia Abakanowicz, who had become Madame Poray, had the villa extended by a wing to the west in return on the rear facade.
During the Second World War, the villa was requisitioned by the German army, and suffered some interior damage.
Following roofing work, on September 6, 1990, a fire partially destroyed the interior of the building. The image of this castle on its islet is often used to illustrate postcards and tourist guides of the Côte de granit rose, Côtes-d'Armor and Brittany. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Costa%C3%A9r%C3%A8s

Saint-Uzec Menhir

Highlight • Historical Site

The Saint-Uzec menhir (in Breton: Kalvar Sant-Uzeg) is a menhir located in the town of Pleumeur-Bodou, near the Saint-Uzec chapel towards Ile-Grande. The menhir was Christianized in 1674 during a mission of the "apostle of Brittany", the Jesuit father Julien Maunoir who had it inserted in a plasterwork with access by stile, had it painted, sculpted and surmounted by a cross. The Christianization of the “standing stones” testifies to a desire to assimilate previous religious signs. It shows the Church's desire to integrate the pagan worship of stones into religious syncretism.

Lannion

Highlight • Settlement

Lannion is rich in a history spanning several centuries, as evidenced by the Brélévenez stairs and its 12th century church. At the top of these stairs, a breathtaking panorama is revealed. The history of Lannion is also lived and brought to life in the streets of the town, where each half-timbered house gives us a glimpse of the life of yesteryear. Being in Lannion is also an opportunity to learn about Breton dance on Friday summer evenings during the musical event “Les Tardives”.
