Pink Granite Coast private tour

Between Perros-Guirec and Trégastel, the Trégor coast is lined with huge blocks of pink granite, carved by wind and sea into strange shapes. It is one of the most photographed landscapes in Brittany, and one of the finest to explore on foot, along the old customs officers’ path that links Trestraou beach to the Ploumanac’h lighthouse.

Offshore, the Sept-Îles archipelago shelters a large seabird reserve, which you can approach by boat from Perros-Guirec in the warmer months. Further east, the car-free island of Bréhat is reached in a few minutes from the Pointe de l’Arcouest.

• Ploumanac’h, its lighthouse and the customs officers’ path
• Perros-Guirec and Trestraou beach
• Trégastel and its granite boulders
• The Sept-Îles by boat, in season
• The island of Bréhat, from the Arcouest

The Pink Granite Coast is about an hour and a quarter from Saint-Brieuc, and two hours from Saint-Malo, Dinard or Rennes. Your driver collects you from your hotel or villa in the morning and brings you back in the evening, so you never have to think about the road.

To enjoy the evening light on the rocks, the tour can also be spread over two days, with a night in Perros-Guirec or Trégastel and the same driver from start to finish.

The road to the Pink Granite Coast follows the Goëlo coast and passes some lovely detours: the island of Bréhat in the morning, lunch by the harbour in Paimpol, then Tréguier and its cathedral before the pink rocks late in the day. The programme is built with you, according to the time you have.

Your driver drops you at the start of the path and waits for you at the other end: you walk in one direction only, without retracing your steps. Between stops, a prestige saloon or a Mercedes-Benz van for up to 7 passengers is waiting, with chilled water on board. All our drivers speak English.

Your driver knows the coast and its best hours, but he is not a licensed tour guide: for a guided discovery, we book an accredited local guide on request.
