Saint-Goustan Beach

Really awesome tour, all the way along the Atlantic coast, with a stopover at the harbour, harbor promenade and shopping center.

Today we cycled around our current location. Croisic peninsula / Golf du Morbihan very close to Guerande. Everywhere the marais / swamps for salt production. A very special landscape.
I bought coarse salt directly from the "salt gardener". 1kg 1 €. 👍
