Finistère's coastlines

Fantastic French coastlines? Finistère has miles of them.

 

Bordered by the English Channel and the Atlantic, Finistère is defined by its relationship with the sea.

 

For millions of years, rolling waves and the occasional dramatic storms have shaped the jagged coastlines, creating a unique and wild beauty, while the Gulf Stream brings its own soft caress.

 

Nature's finest

A rich mosaic of landscapes, Finistère has coasts and woodland, rocky peaks and marshes, canals and rivers - all of which encourages an astounding diversity of flora and fauna.

 

From the heart of the Regional Park to the peaks of the Montagnes Noires and Monts d'Arrée, there are breath-taking views at every turn.

You don't need to be a photographer to be speechless with admiration here: each season arrives in its own unique colours, changeable and mesmerising.  

Cultural heritage in Finistère

 

Finistère has such a rich cultural heritage that it is almost a vast open-air museum.

From prehistoric standing stones to abbeys and chapels, châteaux and manors, history is weaved into the landscape at every turn.
