What to do and see around Porsmeur Beach
In North Finistère, on the Côte des Sables, Porsmeur Beach stretches its fine sand just a stone’s throw from the centre of Plouescat, sheltered by a jumble of rocks. Supervised in summer and home to a water sports centre, it is the ideal starting point to explore this coastline of dunes, islets and big tides by stand up paddle board or sea kayak. With Playa-Rent, you can get a paddle board or kayak in seconds with a simple QR code, with no booking and no queue.

Porsmeur Beach
A stone’s throw from the centre of Plouescat, Porsmeur offers a sandy beach sheltered by rocks, supervised by the SNSM in July and August and holding the Handiplage label. Showers, lifeguard post, bar-restaurant and water sports centre on site: it is the ideal spot for swimming and launching onto the water.
The Bay of Kernic
A few minutes away, the Bay of Kernic is a vast foreshore reshaped by the biggest tides in Brittany. Now the realm of sand yachting and kitesurfing, it hosts a seaside racecourse more than a hundred years old and hides a Neolithic gallery grave revealed at low tide. A spectacular landscape that changes with every tide.
The Côte des Sables and its islets
From Porsmeur, the Côte des Sables is perfect for lovely trips on the water, between golden sandy beaches, sculpted rocks and small islets. You paddle along an unspoilt coastline — preferably in calm seas and taking into account the big tides, which are very pronounced on this coast.
The Plouescat market hall
In the heart of the town, the Plouescat market hall has stood since the 16th century with its slate-topped oak frame — the only timber-framed market hall in Finistère, listed as a historic monument. A rare example of Breton architecture to discover on a stroll through town.
Château de Kerjean
About fifteen kilometres away, in Saint-Vougay, Château de Kerjean displays its Renaissance architecture built around 1570. Its 25 rooms, 20-hectare park and multimedia trails make it a great cultural outing, ideal after a morning of paddleboarding.
Roscoff and the Île de Batz
About twenty kilometres to the east, Roscoff charms with its harbour, shipowners’ houses and thalassotherapy centre. From the jetty, a boat takes you in a few minutes to the Île de Batz, with its beaches and exotic garden — an island getaway not to be missed.

Is there a minimum age to rent?
Rental is not permitted to unaccompanied minors under 18. Before renting, take the time to read the general terms of access and use (CGAU) displayed on site and available on this web page. They set out the age, safety and liability conditions.
How do I check the wind, the tide and the sea conditions?
Before heading out, check the local marine weather forecast and tide times, as wind and currents can change quickly. Choose outings in light wind and calm seas, and stay in sheltered waters rather than venturing offshore. In the event of offshore wind, fog or rough seas, postpone your outing: safety always comes first.
