Best Beaches
Belle-Île-en-Mer features a diverse coastline ranging from the rugged Côte Sauvage to sheltered eastern coves. Plage de Donnant is the island's primary surfing spot, characterized by large Atlantic swells and high dunes. Conversely, the eastern side offers calmer waters at Port Andro and Plage des Galères, which are protected from prevailing winds.
