The Beg-Meil coves Secret and intimate corners

Small, intimate bays surrounded by pine trees and rocky inlets.

Beg-Meil’s coves have a natural charm and a private atmosphere. Some are small and hidden away, while others stretch for dozens of metres. These peaceful beaches, such as Les Oiseaux, La Roche Percée and Bot-Conan, are ideal for swimming, relaxing, picnicking or kayaking. To get there, you’ll need to walk a little, but the effort is amply rewarded by breathtaking scenery and crystal-clear waters.

The coves of Beg-Meil Intimate, unspoilt beaches

Between the tip of Cap-Coz and the tip of Beg-Meil, the coastline of Fouesnant-les Glénan is made up of a series of coves, real havens of peace nestling between pine trees and rocks that look like calanques. Some are just a few dozen metres long, while others are more discreet, nestling in the hollows of the rocks. Les Oiseaux, les Pyramides, Lanroz, La Roche Percée, Lantecoste and Bot-Conan are just some of the enchanting names that evoke these unique coves.

These little bays offer the perfect setting for a swim in crystal-clear water, a picnic in the shade of the pine trees, a kayak trip or a stroll along the path overlooking the sea… with breathtaking panoramic views at every turn!

Accessible on foot, by bike, by boat or by kayak, these small wild beaches reveal all the richness and diversity of the coastline, offering an ideal setting for nature lovers, families in search of tranquillity or adventurers looking to escape to the heart of an unspoilt landscape.
