Crique de la Reine Victoria, Secluded beach in Locmaria, France.
The Crique de la Reine Victoria stretches between schist rocks, offering a combination of pebbles and sand along the Brittany coastline.
The beach name originates from a central rock formation that once resembled Queen Victoria's silhouette before part of it fell into the sea.
Local fishermen gather at dawn near the beach entrance, maintaining traditional fishing practices passed down through generations in Belle-Île-en-Mer.
Access requires a walk from Port An-Dro parking area, following the coastal path through vegetation until reaching the hidden entrance behind a grove.
The beach features natural sea caves formed in the schist cliffs, which become accessible during low tide periods.
