Plage de Corsen

Plage de Corsen, Sandy beach in Finistère, France

Plage de Corsen is a sandy beach at the westernmost point of mainland France with fine sand and clear waters framed by surrounding cliffs. The beach consists of three separate coves, each with its own character and different uses.

The area was once an important site for seaweed processing, with remains of traditional kilns from Porscuidic still visible as evidence of historical maritime industries. These structures reveal how communities once relied on ocean resources for their livelihood.

The beach reflects Breton coastal traditions where fishing communities maintain their connection to the sea, and visitors can observe how local people interact with this important waterway.

The beach is accessible by stairs from the parking area and has seasonal restroom facilities nearby. Visiting is easiest by car, as the designated parking spaces are located conveniently close to the main beach section.

The northern section is designated for naturist use, offering a different experience from the other coves in the area. This division makes the location notable as a place where different visitor groups can find their preferred setting.
