A lovely sunny morning for walking a section of the coast path from our campsite to the Pointe de St-Cast. The path and coastline here is very much like Cornwall. First photo is looking back to 'our' La Mare beach from the path high above the rocks.
This monument is dedicated to the crew of the frigate Laplace, mined in 1950.
The 'semaphore' signal station.
Another monument (the one on the left of the picture!) is dedicated to the Escaped Prisoners of France.
Then around the Pointe, we came to the harbour and a cafe with the best ever hot chocolate!
Then on further on a concrete walkway, passing this young lady getting a suntan ....
..... she is actually very tiny (and much photographed) - you can just see her as a tiny pointy bit on the top of the big rock behind me!
Following the path around this rocky bay. Between the rocks it looks like pebbles
but they are all shells.
Eventually we reached the huge sandy beach of St.-Cast and sat on a wall to eat our picnic.
An interesting house on the seafront.
A geocache brought us to the Chapelle Ste-Blanche
with boats hanging from the rafters
and beautiful stained glass windows.
And so back home for the rest of the afternoon to chill out in the sunshine.
