The Notre-Dame de Penhors chapel and its pardon
Facing the sea, above the beach, the Notre-Dame de Penhors chapel is a major place of Bigouden devotion. Every first Sunday of September it hosts one of the great pardons of Cornouaille, with its procession and popular fervour. A small iconic heritage site to discover on a walk along the GR34.
The Tronoën chapel and calvary
A few kilometres to the south, set in the dunes of the Bay of Audierne, the Tronoën chapel is nicknamed the "cathedral of the dunes". Its 15th-century calvary is the oldest of the great monumental calvaries of Brittany: its carved friezes depict some thirty scenes from the life of Christ. A site steeped in history, facing the ocean.
The Bay of Audierne nature reserve
All around Penhors lies one of the richest natural areas in Brittany: a ridge of dunes lined with ponds and marshes, including the Trunvel pond. It is a paradise for migrating and nesting birds, which you can watch from the paths, binoculars around your neck.

Pointe de la Torche
At the southern end of the Bay of Audierne, the Pointe de la Torche is a world-famous surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing spot, between wild dunes and megalithic remains. A raw and spectacular site, reached by walking along the long beach.
Audierne and the Pointe du Raz
To the west, the port of Audierne charms with its colourful quays and langoustines, the gateway to Cap Sizun. A little further on, the Pointe du Raz, a Grand Site de France, raises its dizzying cliffs above the ocean — one of the most striking images of the Breton end of the world.
