Cliffs and Caves

There's nothing better than exploring inside caves, the structure and the striking colours. The coast at Morgat in Brittany is renowned for the sheer numbers of caves. indeed there are several companies based in the fishing port making a living taking tourists on cave visits in RIBs.



At low tide it is possible to explore on foot

West Coast Paddling

It's really great to be paddling on the west coast and witness the magnificent sunsets, they are always different, and you just have to reach for the camera.

This shot was taken on the Eastern side of the Golfe du Morbihan


The next shot was captured at l'Arcouest On the Côte de Granite Rose, the sky appeared to be on fire, awesome

Île d'Ouessant




The English name for this island is Ushant, it has a notorious reputation amongst seafarers. The current flow is fast around the Island, up to 8 knots at springs, any wind above force 3B creates a bumpy passage.



The island boasts 5 lighthouses, a good indication of the treacherous nature of these waters. The lighthouse Créac'h having the most powerful light in the world
