Discover Erquy during your holiday at Camping Les Pins
With its sandy beaches, pink sandstone cliffs, fishing harbour and coastal paths, Erquy showcases one of the most beautiful sides of the Breton coastline. Located close to the town centre, Camping Les Pins is an ideal starting point for exploring this charming seaside resort, enjoying the sea and discovering the emblematic landscapes of the Bay of Saint-Brieuc.
Cap d’Erquy, between cliffs and wild heathland
With its pink sandstone cliffs, windswept heathland and sweeping sea views, Cap d’Erquy offers a spectacular setting. The paths wind between coves, wild beaches and former quarrying sites, which have since become striking landscapes such as the famous Lacs Bleus.
As you walk, one panorama follows another, revealing the full beauty and diversity of the Breton coastline.
Follow the customs officers’ path
Erquy is also a wonderful destination to explore on foot. The GR®34 coastal path follows part of the shoreline, offering superb routes above the cliffs and through the heathland. These walks lead to more secluded beaches, reveal remarkable coastal scenery and allow you to make the most of the fresh sea air.
Whether you are a keen hiker or simply looking for a walk overlooking the sea, Cap d’Erquy offers routes to suit every pace.
Ten beaches to enjoy by the sea
Erquy has ten beaches, each with its own atmosphere. Some are particularly popular with families thanks to their wide stretches of sand, while others form smaller, wilder coves.
Swimming, playing on the sand, rock pooling, walking at low tide or trying water sports: everyone can enjoy the coastline in their own way. Kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing and sea walking are among the many activities available around the bay.
An iconic fishing harbour in the Bay of Saint-Brieuc
Erquy’s harbour is an integral part of the town’s identity. As you stroll along the quays, you can watch the boats, observe the fishermen at work and, depending on the season, see the trawlers returning to port.
Erquy is particularly renowned for its scallops, a true local speciality. Enjoy them in one of the harbour restaurants and continue your discovery of the destination through its flavours.
A lively and welcoming seaside resort
Beyond its landscapes, Erquy charms visitors with its friendly atmosphere. Restaurants, terraces, shops and markets bring the resort to life, particularly during the summer season.
After a day at the beach or a walk around the cape, the town centre and harbour invite you to extend the day over a meal, an ice cream or a stroll beside the boats.
