The beach seems endless. Especially at low tide. - Plage de Cherrueix

Lycian town of Dolikhiste was destroyed in an earthquake in the second century AD. - A sea turtle!!!
Sorry but it was pitch dark and I didn't want to use the flash. - !
This is where the sea turtle lay her eggs. - Phaselis
Phaselis used to be a very important port. On the left side there are still the ruins of ancient breakwaters. - Capo di Stella
View of the Lacona beach - Beaches in Cannes
I can't believe there is a beach called 3.14! - Beach in Cannes
The main beach in Cannes was closed for renovation. - L'île Sainte-Marguerite
Pointe du Dragon on the island of Saint Margaret - L'île Sainte-Marguerite
Pointe du Dragon is one of my favourite places on the whole Côte d'Azur. - Cagnes-sur-Mer
Imagine sitting on the rocks and listening to the sound of the waves. - Nice
Corsica ferry leaving Nice. - Nice
- Waves in Nice
Imagine sitting on the beach and listening to the sound of the waves. - Nice
View of the Bay of Angels (Baie des Anges) from the Castle Hill - La pointe de l'Aiguille
Super windy and almost stormy weather. But a lovely day to walk to the Pointe de l'Aiguille. - Black sand
This is the blackest beach I've seen. And I've seen quite a few, which claim to be black... Not to mention that compass does not work on this beach. I mean... it works ... but the direction it points to is very locally determined. - Arromanches
Arromanches beach was the landing area during the D-Day Normandy Invasion. - Arromanches
The endless windy beaches are perfect for flying kites! - Arromanches
Remains of the artificial port in Arromanches. - Arromanches
We returned to Arromanches for a lovely dinner. - Plage de Cherrueix
View of Mont Saint Michel from the beach in Cherrueix. - Mont Saint-Michel
This is one of the most fascinating places on the planet. I have spoken. - Mont Saint-Michel
The roofs remind me of an Asterix village :-) - Mont Saint-Michel
This was my third time visiting Mont Saint-Michel and every time there was a different parking regime. With free shuttles one can finally enjoy the natural surroundings. - Mont Saint-Michel
View from the west terrace towards the rapidly incoming sea. - Mont Saint-Michel
The water's level is rising so quickly, proper vortices appear! - Mont Saint-Michel
What a magnificent place indeed! - The Chapel of Sainte-Anne
The lovely chapel of Sainte Anne (1687) replaced an older wooden one. - Pointe du Grouin
View of Mont Saint Michel from the Pointe. - Le Fort du Guesclin
As everything in Brittany, this place is also full of history. Romans, destroyed, fortress in 800s, destroyed, fortified castle built by Bertrand du Guesclin in 1100, destroyed in 1598, this one built in 1756... - Cap d'Erquy
What a beautiful beach this is. - Cap d'Erquy
- Cap d'Erquy

It was insanely hot walking here, no shadow in sight. But it was worth it. - Côte de granit rose
A walk along the Côte de granit rose at sunset, somewhere between Ploumanac'h and Trégastel. - Côte de granit rose
I think this is Plage Quo Vadis. Because Henryk Sienkiewicz wrote his Quo Vadis in the neighbouring castle, overlooking this beach. - Côte de granit rose
In Port de Ploumanac'h, close to Tourony. At low tide, obviously. - Côte de granit rose
Port de Ploumanac'h. At low tide, obviously. - Château de Costaérès
Another spectacular place. A neo-medieval style manor on one of the islands. Built by a Polish engineer Bruno Abakanowicz, later Sienkiewicz wrote Quo Vadis here. Now owned by the comedian Didi :-) - Côte de granit rose
What a vibrant colour! - Côte de granit rose
Every interesting rock has a name, I'm sure an interesting name was given to this one as well. This one is close to La Plage Saint Guirec. Update: it's called Napoleon's hat :-) - Côte de granit rose
Oratoire de Saint-Guirec dating from 11th-12th century. Apparently sticking needles into the saint's nose (and the needle remaining there during the high tide) would guarantee you getting married within a year. No wonder it's so eroded :-) - Côte de granit rose
A stunning bit of French coast indeed! - Phare de Ploumanac'h
Phare de Ploumanac'h on the Sentier des Douaniers. The weather wasn't the best... oh well. - Côte de granit rose
Just about every rock is beautiful! - Côte de granit rose
View of the sea rescue ramp hidden in a well protected cove. - Côte de granit rose
So so so beautiful! Why don't they grow in my garden? - Côte de granit rose
And some wonderful heather between all the fern and hortensias. - Côte de granit rose
I've seen many beautiful houses but this one might be my favourite. It looks good even in rain. - Pointe du Raz
Pointe du Raz overlooking Plage de la Baie des Trépassés at sunset. - Baie des Trépassés
The lonely Tévennec Lighthouse on the horizon. - Serpent d'ocean
... to see the Serpent d'ocean. Made by Huang Yong Ping in 2012. - Serpent d'ocean
