Grande Plage, Public beach in Groix, France.
The Grande Plage extends across the southern coast of Groix Island, featuring fine sand and deep blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
During World War II, German forces constructed defensive structures along the beach as part of the Atlantic Wall fortification system.
The beach hosts annual sand sculpture competitions where local artists create temporary installations reflecting Breton maritime heritage.
The beach provides lifeguard supervision from June to September and includes facilities for water sports equipment rental near the main entrance.
The sand composition shifts naturally throughout the year, creating different patterns and formations along the shoreline each season.
