Pléneuf-Val-André (Côtes-d'Armor, France)
Pléneuf-Val-André is a Breton seaside resort combining fine sandy beaches and the charm of a traditional port. Its lively seafront is organized around long promenades and clearly visible seaside architecture. The coastal relief offers viewpoints over the English Channel and sheltered coves. It is a popular destination for families and water sports enthusiasts.
Heritage and architecture
The Val-André district reveals villas from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a legacy of the seaside boom. Openwork façades, balconies and bow windows reflect the Belle Époque era. The port of Dahouët, more rustic, retains the atmosphere of a fishing village with lively quays and local boats.
Nature and landscapes
The beaches, including the large Plage de Val-André, alternate between golden sand and rocks. The coastline offers panoramas over the bay and coves ideal for walks. The customs officers' path (GR34) runs along the coast and allows exploration of cliffs and headlands while staying close to the sea.
Outdoor activities and leisure
Sailing, windsurfing and kayaking enthusiasts will find numerous schools and practice areas. The Golf de Val-André, by the sea, attracts golfers with holes facing the ocean. Shore fishing and boat trips departing from the port complete the offer.
Gastronomy
Local cuisine highlights seafood: oysters, shellfish and fish often served in seafront restaurants. Markets offer fresh fish and Breton specialties to enjoy on site.
