Port Jean, Protected beach in Le Palais, France.

Port Jean beach extends across 200 meters in length and 50 meters in width, featuring fine grey sand and clear northeastern waters.

The beach lies near ancient fortifications constructed during the reign of Louis XIV, reflecting the strategic importance of Belle-Ile-en-Mer's coastline.

Local fishermen continue their traditional practices at Port Jean, where small boats gather daily to collect the regional marine specialties.

Visitors can access the beach through a gentle slope, with temporary parking available in the adjacent field during summer months.

The natural creek formation behind Port Jean beach creates a marsh ecosystem where various coastal birds nest throughout the year.
