in Brittany Tags: beach, frites, Lannion, moules, Perros, Sept-Iles
Being self-employed you would think we could take loads of time off and sit and eat chocolates all day! Well, not all day and certainly not at this time of the year, but we took a trip to La Grande Plage de Goas Lagorn, Baie de Lannion about 40mins from here to have moule frites . It was too nice to be working.
The beach was mentioned in the Daily Telegraph the other week as being one of the best beaches in Brittany.
We got told about this beach and restaurant by some friends of ours, otherwise l don’t think we would have ever found it. Its that sort of place. As you drive along the coast heading back towards Perros-Guirec there are many more small white-sanded beaches to explore.
Just off the coast are the Sept-Iles, a bird sanctuary which is home to puffins, fulmars, kittiwakes, oystercatchers amongst many others. Grey seals can be seen at the foot of the cliffs in the islands’ secluded creeks. Boat trips can be taken from Perros. Maybe next time. The moules frites were excellent by the way!
