Want to be alone in the world!
You want to break with continental habits. Experience a prodigious sunset? See the rabbits frolicking at dawn against the backdrop of the waves?
You can anchor your boat at Glénan or sleep at the sea lodge the Sextant (closed for the 2020 season) on Saint-Nicolas.
But also…
- The sunsets breathtaking !
- From island to island : go at low tide from Saint-Nicolas to Bananec by the tombolo! But beware of the tide, which may surprise you. (A tombolo is a coastal barrier of sediment connecting two land areas.)
